Moomin Book Five: The Complete Tove Jansson Comic Strip (Hardcover)

Experience the final volume in the legendary series drawn by Tove Jansson!

Moomin Book Five: The Complete Tove Jansson Comic Strip features the final strips drawn by Tove Jansson and written by her brother Lars for the London Evening News. In “Moomin Winter,” the household is sent into a tizzy of secrecy by the arrival of the secret-spilling Nibling. Then, in “Moomin Under Sail,” the Moomins build a boat to follow Too-Ticky’s compass into the great unknown.

Finally, we meet the Fuddler in “Fuddler’s Courtship.” When Mymble captures his heart, his bumbling drives her straight into the arms of Dr. Hatter, the local psychiatrist. Delightfully quirky, the Moomin family does not fare well under the gaze of someone trained in correcting "odd" behavior. This volume marks a historic transition in the series as Lars Jansson prepares to take the helm of both art and writing.

A must-have for collectors, this volume preserves the whimsical wit and beautiful line work of one of the world's most beloved storytellers.
