WHO Will Comfort Toffle?

I am currently obsessed with this book.

Luckily for me, India is too, and we read it together, over and over.

Now I want to read everything by Tove Jansson.

Have you read the Moomin books?

Alexis, thanks for the recommendation. I bought this book after I saw it here and now my boys are obsessed. And I loooove to read it to them. It's so sweet and poetic!

We've never seen these books before! How exciting! Thanks for the hint!

I have read them over and over, first as a kid, then to my own children and now I read them again - for me! I love Tove Jansson! Although she is from Finland she has always been an important author for swedish children. I am not really sure what I love the most - her drawings or the stories. Probably both!

Read them, you will love them!

I remember a friend of mine loving the Moomin books, but for whatever reason I didn't read them. Just saw them at the library the other day and wondered if Ryan would enjoy them. Let me know what you think if you read them!
