The Moomins saw life in many forms but debuted to its biggest audience ever on the pages of the world's largest newspaper, the  London Evening News, in 1954. The strip was syndicated in newspapers around the world with millions of readers in forty countries.  Moomin Book One is the first volume of Drawn \u0026amp; Quarterly's publishing plan to reprint the entire strip drawn by Jansson before she handed over the reins to her brother Lars in 1960. This is the first time the strip will be published in any form in North America and will deservedly place Jansson among the international cartooning greats of the last century.  The Moomins are a tight-knit family-hippo-shaped creatures with easygoing and adventurous outlooks. Jansson's art is pared down and precise, yet able to compose beautiful portraits of ambling creatures in fields of flowers or on rock-strewn beaches that recall Jansson's Nordic roots. The comic strip reached out to adults with its gentle and droll sense of humor. Whimsical but with biting undertones, Jansson's observations of everyday life, including guests who overstay their welcome, modern art, movie stars, and high society, easily caught the attention of an international audience and still resonate today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hardcover | \u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 96 | \u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2006-10-01\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Drawn \u0026 Quarterly","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48276345618658,"sku":"9781894937801","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0023\/0005\/1501\/files\/9781894937801.jpg?v=1787898826"},{"product_id":"9781897299555","title":"Moomin Book Three: The Complete Tove Jansson Comic Strip","description":"\u003cp\u003e\"Originally published in the Evening news, London, 1953-1959\"--Colophon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher Marketing\u003c\/strong\u003e: Moomin has been swiftly making its way into the hearts of North Americans ever since Drawn \u0026amp; Quarterly began collecting the strip in 2006.

Moomin falls in love with a damsel in distress, an unseasonably warm spell turns the valley into a tropical rain forest, and a flying saucer crashes into Moominmamma's garden. Moominpappa decides to live out his dream of occupying a lighthouse and writing a great seaside novel, only to discover that he hates the sea so close up and has no interest in writing about it, and a variety of curious clubs spring up in the valley.

The Moomins try to hibernate in the fashion of their ancestors but insomnia places them smack-dab into a winter carnival with the winter-sports-loving Mr. Brisk. The fickle and eternally lovestruck Mymble and Snorkmaiden find themselves in competition over a thrilling new man. Moominmamma meets her new neighbor, the Fillyjonk, causing her to hire the depressed and secretive Misabel as her new maid. Mymble's mother arrives on the Moomin family's doorstep with her seventeen new children. Finally, a prophet arrives on the scene declaring that the happy Moomins are in fact not happy at all and need to get back to nature and be free. Moomin, of course, becomes more and more miserable the freer he gets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hardcover | \u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 88 | \u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2007-10-30\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Drawn \u0026 Quarterly","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48276902871266,"sku":"9781897299197","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0023\/0005\/1501\/files\/9781897299197.jpg?v=1787905669"},{"product_id":"9781770461215","title":"Moomin Book: The Complete Lars Jansson Comic Strip","description":"\u003cp\u003eGet shipwrecked with Moomin on an abandoned island in the eighth volume of the beloved Moomin hardcover series\nLars Jansson returns with the eighth volume of the classic Moomin hardcover comic series, and the whole gang is back in action.
