Synopsis
When Nicki loses his white mitten in the snow, woodland animals discover it and, one by one, squeeze inside to keep warm. A mole, rabbit, badger, and others, each larger than the last, fill the mitten until a bear's sneeze sends them all flying. Meanwhile, Nicki remains unaware of the commotion as he searches for his lost mitten. Jan Brett's detailed illustrations, inspired by Ukrainian folk art, enrich this charming tale of unexpected companionship.
