About This Book

If you haven't met a Moomin yet, you're missing the most magical fun!

Perfect for readers of all ages, join the beloved, world-famous characters of Moominvalley on an unforgettable adventure in Moominsummer Madness—includes black-and-white illustrations throughout.


"Genius." —Philip Pullman

"Clever, gentle, witty, and completely engrossing." —Jeff Smith, author of Bone

When a flood sweeps through Moominvalley, the Moomins must find a new house. And with typical Moomin good luck, one just happens to be floating by. It looks normal enough, but there are curtains where one wall should be, strange rows of lights, and other odd amenities. Then Moomintroll and the Snork Maiden disappear, and the family realize that the house may hold the answers to more than they ever dreamed.

In the 80 years since the first Moomin novel appeared, Tove Jansson's timeless stories have continued to captivate audiences across the globe with their adventure, humor, and endless wisdom. Whether you're a lifelong fan or a first-time visitor to Moominvalley, these classic books are a must-have for anyone who wishes the world was a bit more magical.
