Open this book and step into the Moominhouse, where the door is always open . . . A Year in the Moominhouse is a stunning carousel book, unfolding to reveal 3D scenes of the iconic blue Moominhouse through a year in Moominvalley. Beautifully illustrated by Filippa Widlund and based on Tove Jansson's classic Moomin artwork, A Year in the Moominhouse starts in spring, as new flowers peep through the ground and Snufkin returns from his winter wanderings. Enjoy a summer party, harvest mushrooms and berries with the family in autumn, and settle down to hibernate in the cold midwinter while Too-Ticky keeps warm in the bathhouse. With four beautifully-illustrated layers in each section, there are intricate details to spot and beloved characters to find all the way through. Featuring special cover finishes and a ribbon-tie closure, this stunning edition is a perfect gift for any Moomin fan, and a book to treasure for ever. Look out for other Moomin books from Macmillan, including The Moomins: The World of Moominvalley, What is a Moomin? An Illustrated Guide in 100 Objects, and The Moomins Find a Home, a pop-up retelling of the first ever Moomin story.
