The Mitten

The plot of the Ukrainian folk tale "The Mitten" is similar to the plot of the Russian folk tale "The Teremok": an old man went into the forest for firewood; he walked and didn't notice how he lost his mitten.

A little mouse ran by, saw the mitten, and decided to settle in it. Then a frog jumped in, a bunny came, after it a fox, after the fox a wolf, a boar, a bear... As is often the case in fairy tales, there was enough space for everyone!..
