The letters in her spoon can be arranged to form several different words. She's a word wizard! Wielding her magic spoon, Anna helps a lost little boy named Zack find his way home-turning a wave-tossed ocean into a canoe and producing a horse once they reach the shore. Accompanied by Cathryn Falwell's ingenious collage pictures, this lively adventure is an enticing introduction to a creative form of wordplay. A concluding note encourages children to become word wizards by collecting letters and words from newspapers and magazines to form their own anagrams. PRODUCT DETAILSPublisher: Clarion BooksPub.

I agree with both "A Reader" and Booklist - this is a great introduction to wordplay AND a valuable classroom asset.
This book is a great introduction to anagrams and creative word play. Follow up with a set of letter cards or alphabet magnets and kids will have a great time creating their own!
