I’m Finnish on my mother’s side and have known about the Moomins but I’ve never read the books. I don’t know why, because I have a large collection of children’s books, but after reading this delightful piece I’m going to have to fix that. Thank you both so much!
The Moomins and the adventure of everyday life
My pleasure. :)

Really enjoyed this, and love the Alice illustration.

Wonderful job, Dana!
What a great description of a magnificent mama!
"Moominmamma is magnificent. She is both kind and honest, helpful and encouraging, and she welcomes all comers, but she also pleases herself."
Something to strive for <3
I just reserved some Moomin books (and Tove’s The Summer Book) from the library! I’m excited to get into this!
