#### About the Moomins
Created by the beloved Finnish artist and author Tove Jansson in 1945, the Moomins are a collection of charming and eccentric characters. Tove Jansson, regarded as one of Finland’s most illustrious artists, originally introduced the Moomins through a series of books and a novel. Their global recognition came from a string of comic strips, with titles like “Finn Family Moomintroll” and “Comet in Moominland” becoming especially notable.
Sophia Jansson, Tove’s niece, beautifully encapsulates their essence by stating, “The Moomin stories are fundamentally about life’s most important aspects for people everywhere—such as love, tolerance, respect, family, and belonging. These themes resonate universally, transcending gender, race, religion, or sexuality.”
