The Mitten, Jan Brett

Tue, 29 Sep 2009 02:51:41 -0400

Millions of readers have fallen in love with Jan Brett’s The Mitten, and over 2.5 million copies have been sold since publication in 1989. This striking oversized anniversary edition with a silver foil jacket and a fresh image of the woodland animals will attract fans old and new, and adult collectors of Jan Brett’s books. Set in a snowy forest, the fun begins when, one by one, animals crawl into Nicki’s lost white mitten to get warm until the bear sneezes, sending the animals flying up and out of the mitten. On each turn of the page, Jan hints at what animal is coming next in her signature borders, inspired by Ukrainian folk art.

Here are the kids acting out the story "The Mitten" by Jan Brett. My battery died before the story was over. Sorry! They wanted to do it again today but I wasn't able to tape it. If they ask to do it again I will try and catch all of it. You can visit www.janbrett.com to print out your own set of masks.
