Dive into this hilarious adventure where forgetfulness leads to an unexpected challenge.

From the publisher

Every morning, forgetful grade-schooler Molly’s parents remind her to come home after school with her mittens, and every day, Molly forgets. Nothing works–not Velcro, not crochet chains, not even duct tape! But Molly isn’t alone. All the kids at school forget, and soon the mountain of mittens in the lost-and-found has grown out of control. Can the kids and their teachers work together to retrieve their lost winter gear? Or will the mitten mountain take over the school? WARNING: Lynn Plourde’s story is so laugh-out-loud ludicrous that you might misplace your own mittens!
