Summary
After losing both his fortune and his girlfriend, Moomin has hit rock bottom. Luckily, in his darkest moment, he stumbles across the beloved family he lost as a child–Moominmamma and Moominpappa–and together, the Moomins embark on their first adventure. Moominmamma struggles to balance her husband’s desire for danger with her own homebody sensibilities, while Moomin fears his new parents will eventually tire of him. Moomin and Family Life is a poignant story of love and reunion that unwinds in this classic Moomin caper from Tove Jansson.

Critics Review
”[Jansson’s] work soars with lightness and speed, and her drawings only echo her writing: delicate but precise, observant yet suggestive…” -Los Angeles Times Book Review
“A lost treasure now rediscovered, one of the sweetest, strangest comics strips ever drawn or written. A surrealist masterpiece. Honest.” -Neil Gaiman
