Aylesworth, Jim The Mitten, illustrated by Barbara McClintock. Scholastic, OCTOBER 2009. $16.99. PICTURE BOOK.
A little boy loses his mitten in the snow and during that cold winter night, several animals, increasing in size, attempt to share the warmth inside.
Aylesworth takes the Ukrainian folktale and adds depth to the story, while McClintock decorates it with her expressive illustrations. I hate to say it, but it may be time to replace your Jan Brett versions.
