"A funny, yet thought-provoking picture book that is highly recommended for reading aloud." -- STARRED REVIEW, Booklist "The over-arching themes of this witty, thought-provoking story are, of course, accepting differences and recognizing individual worthiness." --Kirkus Reviews "Bailey's story of inclusion and acceptance balances any didacticism with a playful tone." --The Horn Book "Preschoolers will love being in on the joke, but elementary-aged readers will love this, too. It's fast, funny, and true." --School Library Journal "[H]eartwarming and illustrates the differences amongst us that contribute to everyone's joyful experiences." -- CM: Canadian Review of Materials "Linda Bailey has taken a familiar circumstance . and given us a heartfelt story of acceptance and inclusiveness.

In The Three Little Mittens , what starts as animosity and discrimination, becomes friendship and support, with all the mittens belonging, and, even better, being welcomed as part of a new configuration" -- CanLit for LittleCanadians " The Three Little Mittens is a beautifully illustrated picture book that addresses important things such as inclusion, uniqueness, friendship, belonging and kindness." --MuskokaRegion.com "Humorous childlike thoughts and joyful pictures align the book with other classics . Just sticking with mittens would have made the story seem more of a parable. When a Little Girl appears, the mittens, and the reader, begin to experience other possibilities." -- Imaginary Elevators.
