“Nicki looked at the mitten and thought, 'How did it get so stretched out?'“
In the classroom, The Mitten can be used to teach sequencing, cause-and-effect relationships, and prediction skills. Its repetitive structure makes it perfect for reading aloud, building comprehension, and engaging students in discussions about storytelling and problem-solving.
This book was published in 1989, and it is a traditional literature children's book. This book tells the story of a young boy named Nicki who loses a white mitten in the snow. As various woodland animals seek refuge inside the mitten, the mitten accommodates them all somehow along the way. It was recognized by the IRA-CBC Children's Choices for its award-winning folktale retelling.
I‘ve adored this book ever since our teacher read it to us in school. We had cutouts of a mitten and all the animals to play with. It‘s originally an old Ukrainian folk tale. The illustrations are absolutely gorgeous. I bought a copy for The Wyrmling for Christmas this year. ❤️
