Moomin Book Six: The Complete Lars Jansson Comic Strip (Hardcover)
Experience the historic first volume to be both drawn and written by Lars Jansson!
After the multifaceted Tove Jansson retired from the daily grind of the newspaper comic strip, the reins were picked up by her younger brother, Lars.

He wrote and drew the strip from 1961 to 1974, maintaining the seamless quality and gentle wit established by his sister.

Of course, no collection would be complete without the legendary hijinks involving international spies invading the valley. This volume marks a new era for the Moomin family while staying true to its whimsical roots.
