On a snowy winter day, Farmer Bill notices that he's short one mitten. After discovering that his cow, his chickens, and his horses also have an odd number of mittens, Farmer Bill sets out to find the mitten thief. Soft, thick lines and muted tones help create the rustic setting for this playful, rhyming introduction to odd and even numbers. Suggestions for related activities are included.
