Pobble's Way

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Wendy Edelson. While tromping through the snow with Dad, Pobble drops a mitten. Forest animals, including a squirrel, bunny, and owl, examine the object, speculating on its name and purpose (Owl: "'It's a wing warmer.' 'No,' Duck assured her. 'It is a fish coat'"). Though the text leans toward cutesy and the paintings can be stiff, the warm wintry tale is mildly diverting.
