Two little red mittens. Left and right, they always went out as a pair.” What would happen if one of the little red mittens went missing? Could one red mitten go on an adventure? Make a snowman or tiny snowballs together with a new friend? Readers meet a variety of animals including a fox, rabbit, pigeon, squirrel and a group of mice who discover the red mitten in the forest. How will they use the mitten? As a hat or to keep warm? Will we find the mitten? This is a gentle story for young readers about keeping warm in the winter, exploring the forest and discovering new ways to use one red mitten. The illustrations are filled with beautiful snowy moments and fun animal adventures. Hayashi brings us a winter adventure filled with warm cozy moments by the woodstove and snowy creatures exploring the outside winter air. What will you create in the snow? Are you wearing two mittens?
