MEDIA REVIEWS
They seem to grow in wisdom and delight every time I read them... a perfect marriage of word and picture.It's not just Tove Jansson's wonderfully strange fairytale world that so appeals but also her beautiful line work and exquisite sense of design.Beautiful words. Anarchic illustrations. Tove Jansson is a genius.
