Moomin and the Birthday Button

Our 2 year old loves this book. We read it five times the first day and daily since we got it. The illustrations are beautiful and the story is long enough to keep a toddler engaged but not too long that their attention starts to wander. This is now a favourite bed time read. I can remember reading Moomin books when I was young and it is nice to see they have aged very well.

I had previously borrowed this book from our local library and the kids (aged 2 and 5) loved it so much that I wanted them to have their own copy. It is a beautiful story with a very happy ending after an emotional couple of pages. Love the illustrations and bright colours, would recommend.

The artwork throughout the book is amazing. I bought it for my 54 year old mother who loved it. I'm 16 and I love it. Moomin is a great story for young and old. Will continue buying more moomin books.

A lovely introduction to the world of Moomin and his friends. My daughter has regularly requested this as her bedtime story since she received it for her 3rd birthday, 8 months ago. We look forward to more Moomin stories for pre-schoolers.

Present for a six year old. Received well and is an invaluable aid to learning.

It was a gift for the daughter of a friend of mine for her son.They lovedit a lot and very pleased with the book

Wonderful colours/illustrations and sweet story

Absolutely delightful

Our 3y/o loves this book, the illustrations are nice and the words are big and simple enough for our 6y/o to read it himself. we definitely recommend it.

Moomin and the Birthday button is part of new line of books based on Tove Jansson's Moomin stories. It is the perfect introduction of the originals to toddlers and pre-schoolers.The drawings and the characters are still Tove Jansson's and the story lines have the same gentle whimsy and wisdom of the Moomin Valley. Great birthday gift for the little ones. Also, I highly recommend the new flap books.

This book was a gift for my great-grandchildren. I feel that it must be of great value to them or their parents wouldn't have suggested it for their birthday.

We love the Moomins. Great for families who don't give lots of presents on a birthday - Moomin gets small gifts and treasures them, and learns that friends are the best present of all.

Great illustrations and well-loved characters. Within a gentle story there are the themes of unintended hurt feelings, others not always sharing your own enthusiasm about particular things, finding consolation in family, things aren't always what they seem.
