Critics Review
[Jansson’s] work soars with lightness and speed, and her drawings only echo her writing: delicate but precise, observant yet suggestive.
Here is where Jansson’s weird but true world begins; where fear, loneliness and insecurity are banished by love and the force of imagination. -Time
