Bookroo's summary

A young girl loses a mitten, sparking her imagination to explore endless possibilities with just one. When the second mitten is found, a new world of creative adventures unfolds. What playful discoveries await with two mittens in hand?

From the publisher

What can you do with only one mitten? Use your imagination! Award-winning poet Kristine O’Connell George shows that the simplest object can be a springboard into playful exploration. Spare rhyming text and bright, lively illustrations celebrate a small child’s joyful discovery of many things she can do, be, and play with a single mitten. And when she finally finds the mitten’s missing mate, two mittens open up a whole new realm of possibilities. Once again, the creators of Book! look at the world through a young child’s eyes, revealing the fun that’s hidden in everyday things.
