Scandinavian Books & Stationery Tove Jansson (1914–2001), author of the books about the Moomin (or Mumin) troll, depicts a saga-like fantasy world in which the characters are not people, but whose strong personalities make them seem so very humane. They usually strive to find some meaning, maybe not with life, but with their existence just for the moment. Children around the world have read the books about the Moomin troll, his family and friends. The first books about Moomin were published in the mid-1940s.
