Moomin Book Seven: The Complete Tove Jansson Comic Strip by Lars Jansson

5.0

Perhaps, one of the favourite books from this series?
I admire the daring move of Lars to tackle these globe-trotting themes (new continent's discovery, gold rush,...) yet staying humorous and charming as usual in his storytelling. 'Moomin and the Scouts' is my best-loved story, it's funny to see Moomin fall head over heels over another girl while Snorkmaiden had to win him back (she is now my beloved character besides Moominmama :) ).

Snorkmaiden: So you really don't want the pill?
Moomin: No..I just want to be alone.
Snorkmaiden: How strange he is... If he were I, I'd know he'd have fallen in love, but who'd he fall in love with? Particularly when he has me

I just love love how confident Snorkmaiden is, no over-sentimentally despair for heartbreak.
