A detail that I have always enjoyed about her illustrations are the panels on each side of the main page. The expressions on the faces of the animals as they squeeze help us imagine how cramped it got inside.
As the mitten stretches and expands to fit each animal, you can sense the tension of the yarn. Jan Brett’s illustrations give life to the story. It is a regular sized child’s sweater, but the arms have been stretched out to twice their natural length because I used to pull them down over my hands and use them to keep warm. I have a sweater that was hand-knit by my Grandma. One of the reasons I love this story is because I know how stretchy homemade mittens and sweaters are. Growing up in the north, I was well acquainted with mittens and sweaters. Jan Brett, author and illustrator of The Mitten retells a classic story with amazingly detailed illustrations.
