Tales from Moominvalley

Tove Jansson's Moomin family have all the usual ups and downs of any family life, but what really shines through is their loyalty and total trust in each other and their friends. As with all the books in the series, there are funny things, sad things and interesting things happening and while it is ostensibly a children's book, I would recommend it to children of all ages (i.e. adults as well). For a comforting read that also helps you remember the blessings you don't always count - go to your bookshelf and reach for a Moomin!

I'm in my fifth decade and this is my second reading, for me this time, not to my (now adult) children. Can't wait for grandchildren so I can see the wonder in their eyes. Such philosophy and quirky charm. Highly recommend all Jansson's books for all ages ... eternal classics.

Just what I wanted - profound character-studies shaped as childrens' tales.

great quality and fast delivery, thanks!

Bought as Christmas gift for my Granddaughter who is already familiar with Moominvalley books, which she loves. She was thrilled to recieve this one too.
