Amazon.com Review:
A Ukrainian boy named Nicki wants his grandmother Baba to knit snow-white mittens for him. She warns her grandson that a white mitten will be hard to find if he loses it in the snow, but of course he promptly does just that! What happens next is the surprising part, as a mole takes refuge in the lost mitten, then a rabbit, then a hedgehog, an owl, a badger, and a fox. If you think the mitten might be a wee bit stretched out at this point, just wait: "Then a big bear sniffed at the mitten. The animals were packed in tight, but the bear didn't care. He crawled in anyway." When a tiny mouse squeezes in, her whiskers tickle the bear's nose. He sneezes, and "Aaaaa-aaaaa-ca-chew!" all the animals fly out of their crocheted cave. As the mitten sails through the air, Nicki spots it, reclaims it, and takes it home to show his smiling Baba.
Jan Brett is the illustrator of many well-known folktales, fairy tales, and poems, such as Goldilocks and the Three Bears and The Owl and the Pussycat, by Edward Lear. Her special signature in her detailed artwork is the intricate borders, seen in this book as birch-bark panels with embroidered details and mitten-shaped vignettes offering additional insights into the story line. Brett is at her best when she illustrates animals, and the expressions on the faces of her creatures are a delight. She carefully researched the costumes, furniture, and house in this traditional Ukrainian tale--all are authentic. A fine story to read on a frosty night with a cup of hot chocolate, and if you ever get your fill of The Mitten, you can always try its delightfully original companion book, The Hat, winner of the 1998 Boston Globe-Horn Book Award. (Ages 4 to 8)
Product Description:
Brett creates a dramatic picture book with the story of Nicki, a young boy who has lost a mitten in the snow and the animals who try to make a home of it. "The illustrations and the book design . . . are exquisite . . . a charming lap book to be poured over again and again."--School Library Journal. Full-color illustrations.

- Packing was bad
Book is great but it came in a very thin envelope with no padding and the book itself was folded in half during delivery. It was in pretty bad shape actually....

- Wonderful on many accounts
We borrowed this book from the library and I found myself reading it to my son one day when he was upset and needed distracting. He was quickly drawn into the story. I had him participating in the story telling, something he doesn't commonly do. I would ask him I wonder who is next and from the small picture in the border he could figure out what animal was coming next. After the story was over we got out the globe and found the Ukraine and talk a bit about how its different there.

Rating: - Great
My 2 year old son thinks this book is great. The illustrations are very colorful, and you can see the animal coming toward the mitten in the previous page. My son likes to say what is coming next. Lots of fun.

- Beautiful illustrations do most of the story-telling
I must say, I truly do love the illustrations and artwork of Jan Brett. She is gifted in that area and I'm not going to argue that. What I will argue is that Jan Brett does a pretty darn good job telling a sweet story just through the beautiful images. The colors are bright and beautiful and that group of woodland creatures is just adorable. However... the story is not quite up to other retellings I have heard. Simply, the voice of the story does not match the illustrations and that makes for ... Read More
Rating: - Very good children's book
I was told the original version of the story in Ukrainian as a child. I wanted to find it for my daughter, but could not find the Ukrainian book in my stash. I was delighted to find it here. The illustrations are beautiful - keeping in tradition with the appropriate dress, characters, house & scenery. And although the book might not be EXACTLY like the original, it is close enough. My daughter calls my mother Baba and she loves that there is a Baba in this story. I good addition to any child's library. ... Read More
