The cumulative tale of a child’s lost mitten — but found to become home to a host of animals — is told in straightforward language and intricate, bordered illustrations. Now 20 years old, Brett’s interpretation of a Ukrainian folktale will be enjoyed anew.

On a walk, a young child sees a variety of animals from a black cat to a brown horse and more — which the reader discovers are following the child! Gleeful, jewel-toned illustrations on sturdy, open pages are ideal for sharing with the youngest child who will catch on to the repetition in Spanish, English or both.
