Kyo Maclear is the author of Spork, the feature book in our June 2017 Picture Book Box. New in paperback, Spork won numerous awards when it was published in 2010. A glimpse into the life of a spork – not a fork, not a spoon. Never chosen to be at the table, just where does he fit in? Spork is a clever story about tolerance and individuality. Kyo lives in Toronto and is the mother of two sons and two cats.
