Although author/illustrator Satoshi Kitamura is Japanese, and currently lives in Japan, it seems that many of his picture-books were first published in the UK, where he lived for many years. Pot-San's Tabletop Tales falls into that category, and was released by the London-based Andersen Press in 2012. The stories here have a gentle, quirky sense of humor, and will appeal to young children who enjoy tales about the adventures of anthropomorphic objects - think nursery rhymes about spoons, and so on. The watercolor artwork captures the humor of the text, and has an amusing, cartoon-like style that is very appealing. ( )
