The Moomins and The Great Flood, a pivotal moment in the Moomin Valley's history, is the focus of attention as we approach the Moomins' eightieth anniversary in 2025. Tove Jansson's first Moomin story, written in 1945, immediately after World War II, poignantly captures the displacement of refugees across Europe during that period. To commemorate the Moomins' eightieth anniversary, a global campaign titled "The Door Is Always Open" will be launched, emphasizing Jansson's timely message of kindness and inclusivity towards those forced to flee to safety. This new format edition of the story includes an introduction by renowned author Frank Cottrell-Boyce, an afterword of newly discovered notes about Tove's Moomin characters, and a delightful cut-out Moominhouse poster designed by Tove herself.
