Description

A young boy's lost mitten leads to a charming snowy adventure in this beautifully illustrated board book. When Nicki drops his white mitten in the snow, he goes on without realizing it's missing. One by one, woodland animals find it and crawl in, each one larger than the last. As the story unfolds, the reader can see Nicki's snowy outing in the borders of each page. The animals bring warmth and humor to the tale, with Jan Brett's distinctive style bringing them to life. This delightful board book is a perfect gift for young readers, featuring Jan Brett's signature visual delights and details inspired by Ukrainian tradition. The story culminates in a wonderfully funny climax as the animals make room for each newcomer in the mitten and sprawl in the snow after a big sneeze.
