Moomin Book One: The Complete Tove Jansson Comic Strip

Experience the delightful Moomin universe through the enchanting art and storytelling of Tove Jansson's beloved comic strip, now available in its entirety in Moomin Book One.

Tove Jansson is renowned for her children's books and illustrations, particularly the beloved Moomins series. The first Moomins story debuted in 1954 in the London Evening News, reaching millions of readers in 40 countries through syndication. Moomin Book One is the first volume of Drawn & Quarterly's plan to reprint the entire strip, showcasing Jansson's work before her brother Lars took over in 1960. This marks the first publication of the Moomin strip in North America, solidifying Jansson's place among the greatest cartoonists of the last century.

The Moomin family is depicted as a close-knit group of hippo-shaped creatures, known for their laid-back and exploratory attitudes. Jansson's artwork is simple yet detailed, capturing the beauty of lounging animals in fields of flowers or along rocky beaches, reminiscent of her Nordic heritage. The comic strip has a wide appeal, charming adults with its gentle humor and clever wit. With a whimsical tone and subtle critiques of everyday situations like unwelcome guests, modern art, and high society, Jansson's work still captivates a global audience today.
