Who Will Comfort Toffle?

My amazingly sweet boyfriend made me the happiest woman in the world by being such a sweetheart and buying me the book "Who Will Comfort Toffle?" It's a Moomin book by Tove Jansson. We were just strolling through a sort of indoor flea market type mall called Global Market here in Minneapolis and we were looking at the Scandinavian store because I'm Scandinavian and I wanted to see what they had there and right on the shelf was a Moomin book! I about died right there! So my boyfriend told me that he would buy it for me because he knew it would totally make my day and bring me happiness This book is just amazing! The story it tells and the illistrations are just magnificent. I happen to have some postcards that are from the book, which I think is totally cool, and I am so glad that I can share not only this book with you but also some of the illistrations from it so everyone can enjoy it! :-)

Moomin Postcard #3

I really love this Moomin postcard. The colors are so bright and vibrant yet the image is so peaceful. This is a postcard of Moominmama who is Moomin's mother. You can tell that it's her because of the purse sitting next to her. She isn't always depicted with a rose tucked behind her ear, but that's one of the reasons I love this postcard so much, it makes her look really cute! The hat that she's using is Moominpapa's hat (her husband's and also Moomin's father).

Another Moomin Postcard

This is a postcard of Snuftkin. She is Moomin's girlfriend. The only way you can tell her apart from Moomin is her blonde hair and she wears a little anklet. She is my favorite character from Moomin's, and I think Moomin and Snuftkin make a great couple!

Moomin Postcards

One of my many hobbies is collecting postcards. I have tons of them and I have many different collections of postcards. I have all 50 US states and I'm also working on getting a postcard from every country in the world now. I also collect movie postcards such as: Pirates of the Caribbean, Harry Potter, and Lord of the Rings. One of my favorite collection of postcards is my Moomin cards though.



Moomins started out as books and a comic strip but has become so popular that it's now a tv series that's not just popular in Finland but also Japan. The original books and comic strip was done by Tove Jansson. Moomins are so popular that they even have their own amusement park in Finland called Moomin World. I hope to visit there someday (yes I'm still a kid at heart).
