“Oscar, it’s getting dark and it’s starting to rain.
We’ll never find that mitten!
Come inside, Annie. I made some hot chocolate for us, and I’ve got a biscuit for Oscar.
Look! The rain is melting the snowman.
But what’s that spot on his chest?
Gracious! Your snowman has a heart!
My mitten is the heart of the snowman!”

“Oscar!
You found it!
Wow! A flying mitten!
Oh, it’s only a little bird.
I wonder if he stole my mitten to make a snuggly nest.
No, he’s too small to carry off a mitten.
But an eagle could do it!
Maybe an eagle took my mitten to keep his baby’s head warm.”

“Finding missing mittens is hard work.
It would be easier to grow new ones!
Let’s try planting the other mitten right here in the garden. Next spring when the snow melts, a little mitten tree might sprout.
Miss Seltzer and I would take good care of it all summer long.
In the fall we’d pick the ripe mittens.
Then I’d give mittens on Christmas.
And mittens on birthdays.
And mittens on Valentine’s Day!”
