The Silver Spoon

Ben has a small silver spoon. It sits on the kitchen table. Every night, the house is quiet. Ben goes to sleep. The spoon wakes up.

The spoon has tiny legs. It jumps off the table. It walks to the fridge. It opens the door. The spoon likes cold milk. It drinks a little bit. Then, it walks to the cookie jar. It eats a small crumb.

The spoon is happy. It walks back to the table. It sits down. It looks like a normal spoon again.

In the morning, Ben wakes up. He goes to the kitchen. He sees the spoon. He looks at the milk. The milk is low. He looks at the cookie jar. The lid is open.

"That is strange," Ben says.

The spoon does not move. It is very quiet. Ben picks it up. He eats his breakfast. He does not know his spoon likes to walk at night.

The spoon waits for the sun to go down. It wants more milk tonight. It is a hungry spoon.

Does your spoon move at night?
