Abstract
The Moomins are characters in a popular set of tales written by Swedishspeaking Finnish writer and artist Tove Jansson (1914–2001), first published in Finland in 1945 (Westin, 2014). The Moomin family, hippopotamus-like creatures, live in Moominvalley, and have featured in numerous movies and television programs. Jansson’s books about the Moomin family have been translated into 45 languages, and are among the most widely translated works of Finnish literature (Kurhela, 1996). A TV series of the Moomins was aired in the United Kingdom in the 1980s, but since then, English children’s main introduction to the Moomin world has been through Jansson’s books.
