“The Mitten” is a classic children’s storybook that has been beloved by generations of readers. Written and illustrated by Jan Brett, it tells the tale of a boy named Nicki who loses his white mitten in the snow. The mitten is soon discovered by a variety of forest animals, who each crawl inside to keep warm.
