Tonight, Leo can't settle. At playtime his friends wouldn't let Oscar into their game, and Oscar spent it alone by the wall, and it has left Leo with a funny feeling in his tummy that won't go away. So Grandpa tells him about a single red mitten, lost in the snow, and the cold little animals who come knocking at it one after another, each asking the very same thing: is there room for one more?

For children 4 to 8, and whoever sits beside them.

About the tale: The Mitten, or Рукавичка, is a beloved Ukrainian folktale first written down in the 1800s and still told to children today, about a lost mitten that stretches to make room for every cold creature who asks to come in from the snow.
