The Moomin universe is what you’d get if you took Roald Dahl, Dr. Seuss, Bill Watterson and Charles Schulz, and mixed them together with Finland’s cartoonishly long summer days and winter nights.’ - Myla Goldberg, NPR. ‘The experience of loneliness, unrequited love, insecurity, fear, separation, jealousy, and grief Jansson was seen by her readers as someone who understood their inner lives.’ - Frances Wilson, New York Review of Books.
