A little girl loses her mitten after playing in the snow all day And goes searching for it. This is not the same folk story, but it caught my eye when I was looking for mitten books. The Missing Mitten Mystery by Steen Kellogg I was quite surprised that while the basic story is the same, the details are quite a bit different! I love this version just as much as Brett’s version though, and the illustrations are wonderful! This is the first version of The Mitten folk story that I’ve read that wasn’t by Jan Brett. Her illustrations tell the story without even needing the words, and the foreshadowing pictures on the border make for a very fun read with kids! This is possibly my favorite Jan Brett book of all! If you like the story “The Mitten”, make sure to check out my printables that go with the book!īrett’s version of this folk story is now more than just folklore – it’s become a classic book. ![]() I was really excited to read versions other than the Jan Brett one I am so familiar with. I’ve only just realized that The Mitten is actually a Russian Folk story passed down along the generations. ![]()
