Moomin Book Eight The Complete Tove Jansson Comic Strip

GET SHIPWRECKED WITH MOOMIN IN THE EIGHTH VOLUME OF THE BELOVED MOOMIN HARDCOVER SERIESLars Jansson returns with the eighth volume of the classic Moomin hardcover comic series, and the whole gang is back in action. Sniff is causing trouble with another of his get-rich-quick schemes, Moominmaiden falls in love with the inspector's bad boy nephew, and Moominmamma is offering up plum cake to whosoever should need it. As always, the experiences of the Moomin family are poignant, melancholy, and strangely wise, with just a dash of drolly funny and a pinch of slapstick. Without a doubt, Lars Jansson's Moomin Volume Eight is a treat for the whole family.ALSO AVAILABLE: The Book About Moomin, Mymble and Little My 978-1-897299-95-1 / $16.95 Moomin & the comet978-1-77046-122-2 / $9.95Moomin & the sea978-1-77046-123-9 / $9.95Moomin Book One 978-1-894937-80-1 / $19.95 Moomin Book Two 978-1-897299-19-7 / $19.95 Moomin Book Three 978-1-897299-55-5 / $19.95 Moomin Book Four 978-1-897299-78-4 / $19.95 Moomin Book Five 978-1-897299-94-4 / $19.95 Moomin Book Six 978-1-77046-042-3 / $19.95 Moomin Book Seven978-1-77046-062-1 / $19.95Moomin Builds a House978-1-77046-108-6 / $9.95Moomin Every Day 978-1-77046-043-0 / $22.95 Moomin Falls in Love978-1-77046-107-9 / $9.95Moomin's Winter Follies978-1-77046-098-0 / $9.95Moominvalley Turns Jungle978-1-77046-097-3 / $9.95Who Will Comfort Toffle? 978-1-77046-017-1 / $16.95PRAISE FOR THE MOOMIN SERIES:"Whimsical and charming, Moomin's (mis)adventures suggest an Alice in Wonderland dream world with odd beings, unexplained connections, and events that freewheel out of control." -- Library Journal "Moomin is about freedom, tolerance, and optimism amid frustration, loss, and fear." -- Modern Painters "A lost treasure now rediscovered n one of the sweetest, strangest comics strips ever drawn or written.
