dead_deer 's review for:

The Memoirs of Moominpappa by Tove Jansson
5.0

When I was a child, and loving all the Moomin books, this one hadn't been translated into English (I don't speak Swedish at all).

Now I'm old and reading the Tove Jansson to my kids (they love them too) I find this, translated and in a lovely edition.

My youngest and I agree that this remarkable, at times hilarious, book is probably the best of the lot. What joy for me to have a 'new' Moomin book at my great age.
