About this product

Product Information

In this bestselling modern classic, a young boy's lost mitten leads to a charming snowy adventure. Jan Brett's beautiful retelling makes a perfect holiday gift. When Nicki drops his white mitten in the snow, he goes on without realizing that it is missing. One by one, woodland animals find it and crawl in; first, a curious mole, then a rabbit, a badger and others, each one larger than the last. Finally, a big brown bear is followed in by a tiny brown mouse and what happens next makes for a wonderfully funny climax. As the story of the animals in the mitten unfolds, the reader can see Nicki in the borders of each page, walking through the woods unaware of what is going on. In her distinctive style, Jan Brett brings the animals to life with warmth and humor, and her illustrations are full of visual delights and details faithful to the Ukrainian tradition from which the story comes. Jan Brett is also the creator of such wintery classics as The Hat , The Snowy Nap, Three Snowy Bears , The Animal's Santa, and The Night Before Christmas . This book is also available in Spanish, as El mitón .

    Perfect

    With more new parents asking for a book instead of a card, this is a great option. Beautifully illustrated and good message for kids.

  • Wonderful story for all ages

    I recently began teaching Elementary Music and immediately started looking for this story as it adapts very well to the music classroom. I enjoy all of Jan Brett's stories and the illustrations are just as great. If you are looking for a story that children will fall in love with and one you will enjoy as well this is definitely a winner. If you have any questions about adapting it into a "musical" story feel free to contact me at johnwaylandharr@gmail.com.

  • The Mitten, a Ukrainian Folk Tale.

    The Mitten is a Ukrainian folk tale about a lost mitten and the forest animals that find it. This version is a little different than the Original Ukrainian folktale version, but close. Very nice art and well written, it is an enjoyable book for children of all ages. Recommended by my Ukrainian wife!
