Sophie Hannah, one of England's most renowned and popular rhyming poets, has written a sensitive and gloriously entertaining adaptation of the text - the perfect match for Jansson's quirky illustrations. This is one of the most appealing children's books this decade. Tove Jansson (1914-2001) was a legendary Finnish children's book author/artist and creator of the Moomins, who came to life in books, comic strips, theatre, opera, film, radio, theme parks, and television.
