Moominpappa and the Great Flood

English

By (author): Tove Jansson

If you haven't met a Moomin yet, you're missing the most magical fun...

Join Moomintroll and his friends in this very special picture book to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the classic story, The Moomins and The Great Flood.

A storm is blowing through Moominvalley. I'm so glad you built our house right here in Moominvalley, Pappa, Moomin declares contently. Actually, Moominpappa replies, I didn't.

Settle in with the Moomin family as they hear Moominpappa's tale of The Great Flood - a tremendous storm which swept away his precious home. Can Moominpappa battle through the flood to find his family again? And how did the Moominhouse come to be in Moominvalley?

A beautiful tale of adventure which celebrates Tove Jansson's iconic Moominhouse - a place of safety for anyone who needs a roof over their heads.
