Come and explore with the Moomins in this brand-new story in a book shaped like the Moominhouse.
Moomintroll is searching the Moominhouse for a string for his kite. He spots a red string... but where does it lead? Join Moomintroll as he follows the string past Snufkin playing a tune, Snorkmaiden swinging on a trapeze and Little My sliding down the stairs. Along the way, lift the flaps to explore rooms, peek into cupboards and peer behind doors. There are all kinds of wonderful things to find!
With simple text, things to spot and flaps to lift on every page, In the Moominhouse is the perfect introduction for little ones to Tove Jansson's world of Moominvalley.
About the Author
Tove Jansson (1914–2001) was born in Helsinki to artist parents. She was to become a celebrated artist, political cartoonist and author, but she is best known as the creator of the Moomins, one of the most successful and beloved children's book series ever written. Inspired by summers spent on the islands off Finland and Sweden, Tove created the unique world of Moominvalley and all its inhabitants. The Moomins and The Great Flood, her first book to feature the Moomins, was published in 1945. Tove went on to publish 12 Moomin books between 1945 and 1977, which have sold in their millions and been translated into over 40 languages.
