Moomin: Little My and the Wild Wind by Tove Jansson
If you haven't met a Moomin yet, you're missing the most magical fun . . . Join Moomintroll and his friends in this brand new picture book based on the original stories by Tove Jansson. On a windy day in Moominvalley a frightened forest creature comes tap-tapping on the door of the Moominhouse.

A gorgeous, brightly illustrated story about community and looking out for one another.

Tove Jansson was born in Finland in 1914. She began her career as a cartoonist and went on to write and illustrate many books for adults and children. She drew her first Moomin in the 1930s, just for fun, and in 1945 he became a character in a children's story. Tove became world-famous for her Moomin books, which began with The Moomins and the Great Flood in 1945, closely followed by Comet in Moominland in 1946, Finn Family Moomintroll in 1948 and six more Moomin adventures. During the winter months Tove lived and worked in Helsinki, but in the summertime she stayed on a beautiful remote island in the Gulf of Finland with her long-term partner, the artist Tuulikki Pietilä. Tove Jansson received many prestigious awards during her lifetime, including the international Hans Christian Andersen Medal. She died in 2001, aged eighty-seven.
