Written and illustrated with hand drawn images by Tove, the characters are based on people she knew in her own life. These endearing creatures were made into comic strips and TV cartoons as well as the original series of nine books, and even today there is a Moomin theme park in Finland. Jansson died in 2001, her books by then translated into 45 languages; in 2017 she was honoured in two London exhibitions and an outdoor Moomin adventure event in Kew Gardens. It is her delightful illustrations that are particularly remembered, simple line drawings that portray the portly trolls and their friends, in humorous situations and magical landscapes, and these images look wonderful when reproduced on stationery accessories and household items. No doubt the Moomin legacy will continue for generations of children (and adults) to come!
