Moomin: Moomipappa's Memoirs

Author: Tove Jansson


In this book, Moominpappa reveals his amazing life story. As a child, Moominpappa was left on the doorstep of an orphanage, but he ran away soon after. It was then that he met his friends, Hodgkins, the Joxter and the Muddler, who shared his great adventures with him. Hodgkins, an intelligent inventor shows his friends the marvellous ship, The Oshun Oxtra ( misspelling of The Ocean Orchestra. The Muddler was painting the name on the side of the ship, but he accidentally misspelt it. ) on which they sail on and encounter many great adventures.


I love the new characters that I met in this book. All of Moominpappa's friends are the fathers of Moomintroll's friends, except for Hodgkins. I would like to know more about Hodgkins's family.
