RETURN TO MOOMIN VALLEY IN THE SEVENTH VOLUME OF THE CLASSIC COMIC BY LARS JANSSON
In this volume of the Complete Lars Jansson comic, Jansson's work, already quite polished, takes on a joie de vivre heretofore unseen. The Moomins rebel once more against hibernation, receive an inheritance they're unprepared for, find colonization a bit of a bore, and decide once and for all that seashells are much prettier than gold nuggets. With familiar jabs aimed at Moomin leg length and somewhat less familiar ones aimed at capitalism and colonial politics, Jansson's comics are timeless treasures for the whole family
Moomin the colonist -- Moomin and the scouts -- Moomin and the farm -- Moomin and the goldfields.
Welcome to the enthralling, imaginary world of Moominvalley, where one is sure to quickly fall in love with its sweet dreamers, irascible schemers, and creative dilettantes as they search for love, fame, and fortune. Whether it's Moomin and moominpappa setting off to discover an unknown continent, moomin's pursuit of the enchanting Tuttle and his subsequent enrollment in the venerable Scouts, the Moomin family's inheritance of a country estate, or the moomin family's inadvertent creation of a gold rush in Moominvalley, Lars Jansson's spirited take on his sister Tove's creations will delight both the devoted and the unacquainted. This, the seventh volume in the series, is the second all Lars Jansson collection.
