About
In the run-up to Moomins eightieth anniversary (2025) the spotlight is on The Moomins and The Great Flood and the first glimpse it offers of Moomin Valley. Tove Jansson wrote this first ever Moomin story in 1945, in the wake of World War II, and although a children's tale, it vividly evokes the displacement of refugees throughout Europe at the time.
A global Moomin.com campaign will celebrate the eighty years of the Moomins with the slogan 'the door is always open', emphasising Jansson's timely message of kindness and inclusiveness towards those forced to flee to safety.
This new format edition includes an introduction by much loved author Frank Cottrell- Boyce; an afterword of newly discovered notes that Tove made about her Moomin characters; plus a fabulous cut-out Moominhouse poster designed by Tove.
