Christmas Comes to Moominvalley by Tove Jansson
An exquisitely illustrated retelling of Tove Jansson's classic story The Fir Tree, in which the Moomins are awakened from their Long Winter Sleep to be told that Christmas is coming. The only trouble is, the Moomins have no idea who--or what--Christmas is. As the Moomins prepare for Christmas, they learn what Christmas is really about.Finnish writer, artist, and political cartoonist Tove Jansson (1914-2001) is best known for her books about the Moomins, adventurous, amusing cartoon trolls who had much in common with their bohemian, nature-loving author and, it seems, shared many of her family's traits. She is also the author of eleven novels and short-story collections for adults, including The Summer Book and The True Deceiver.
Boel Westin is professor of literature at Stockholm University and author of the biography Tove Jansson: Life, Words, Art. She is chairman of jury for the world's largest children's literature prize, the Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award.
Helen Svensson was a literary manager at Schildts Forlag Publishers for thirty years where she was Jansson's last editor.
Sarah Death is a prizewinning literary translator, mainly from Swedish, with some forty translated titles to her name.
