Two Wool Gloves by Bo Jin, illustrated by Li Li, PICTURE BOOK Reycraft Books, 2019, $7. 9781478868804
BUYING ADVISORY: Pre K, EL (K-3) - ADVISABLE
AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE
There is a big snowstorm, and Father Squirrel is looking for a safe place for Mother Squirrel and their 5 babies. The regular places - holes in trees - already have occupants, but then Father Squirrel discovers a lost wool glove in the snow - perfect, on finger for each of the babies and Mother Squirrel will fit in the rest - but there's not enough room for him, so Father Squirrel must hunkerdown outside and hope for the best, until the boy who lost the glove returns to get it.
Bo Jin's story was delightful! Li Li's illustration of the family safe and warm inside the glove - so cute. I loved the father's determination to protect his family in a terrible storm, and his face - ahh! A fun story with a heartfelt message.

Extra star for the cute illustrations but my first thought was that squirrels don’t have babies in the winter and why weren’t they already ensconced in a warm home?

When your library has The Mitten checked out and you need a read-alike real quick...this will do.
