Description As Books Finn Family Moomintroll (Mumintrollen #3)

"It's finished. There isn't a stamp, or an error that I haven't collected. Not one. What shall I do now?" "I think I'm beginning to understand," said Moomintroll slowly. "You aren't a collector anymore, you're only an owner, and that isn't nearly so much fun." My children and I believed we were only "owners" of the Moomins nowadays, not collectors of their adventures. However, by accident we discovered that one can collect the same stamp twice, and be a happy Hemul. No stamp is an identical twin. To put it in a less Moominish way: we all of a sudden discovered we wanted to reread our collection of Moomins. And what a strange experience it is to read aloud to three teenagers who suddenly understand all the character traits of the inhabitants of Moomin Valley. When we started comparing and contrasting with whom we identified most, I added some valuable memory stamps to my rich collection of "reading with my children". My son said he now knew exactly why I need to be alone sometimes. If you wander off alone, you will be all the happier when you return. As for the wizard - what a kind and wise old man he turned out to be. Knowing people makes them less scary. And just remember to offer them pancakes. That is the ultimate test. Loved it!

Assessment Of Books Finn Family Moomintroll (Mumintrollen #3)

The third in the series but the first to be translated into English. I think I prefer its original Swedish title: 'The Magician's Hat'. In this story, Moomintroll, Sniff and Snufkin discover a 'Hobgoblin's' hat which has the power to change anything placed within it. Although this is the plot device that binds all events together it's not for this that you really read the book but for the delightful characters, both new and old, that Jansson lovingly plays with. Why it has taken me so long to

Read this one when I was seven...At the time, I didn't understand the concept of "Never judge a book by its cover" (and boy am I glad, as this book's just as good, if not better than it's awesome, mind-candy cover) and at first, I picked this one up solely based on the colorful illustrations on the jacket. It's still a favorite of mine and reminds me of the absolute wonder of being a kid. This book rocks my world. What a little freakin' treasure chest of glory the Moomintrolls are!Snufkin is a

This book is the reason I learned to read.My mother read it aloud to me once and then refused to read it again. In fact, she washed her hands of the whole series on the grounds that it was "creepy". I was forced - forced! - to teach myself to read, if I wanted any more Moomins, ever. I got my revenge, however: I read this book out loud to HER while she was working in the kitchen and couldn't get away.

I thought this was rather fun. It's sort of cute little creatures going on with adventures of one kind and another. Sometimes there is danger, but they find ways to get out of it. Sometimes weird things happen, like the loss of Moominmamma's purse. But, when it's found againactually someone nabbed it because the inside pockets made a nice snug place to sleepthe joy is so great that they have a giant party for the whole of Moomin Valley.I dunno, I rather like the idea of taking joy in life and in

These books fill me with awe and happiness, and just the right amount of melancholia.And the pictures make me think of something holy and ineffable, much like William Blake's illuminated manuscripts.If it wasn't for the Moomin books I'd be a poorer and more miserable person.

I absolutely adore Tove Jansson's Moomintrolls and their exploits, and the 1970s German language translations by Vivica and Kurt Bandler were favourites of my childhood (and are still considered sweet and nostalgic gems to be reread over and over again, although my copies are falling apart and I now need to find replacements). And with this fact in mind, when the Children's Literature Group decided to read Elizabeth Portch's English language translation of the third Moomintroll book, of

(in Finnish/Swedish - "The Magician's Hat", first released in Swedish (1948), then in Finnish 10 years later. Some later books were translated faster.) I like how you don't really need to start from the beginning in this series. Some parts of the book are already familiar to me; there's no Little My in this book...So: one day after the moonmintrolls have woken up from their winter hibernation, Moomintroll goes with his friends to look around a nearby mountain, where they find a strange top hat;
