From Publishers Weekly
Starred Review. From 1953 to 1960, the late Finnish artist Jansson drew a comic strip about her creation Moomin for the London Evening News. Though the strip was an enormous success around the world, this is the first North American edition of an expressive and endearing classic. Moomin's stories begin simply (he needs to rid his home of freeloaders, or goes on a family vacation) and snowball into a series of amusing, whimsical misadventures, which can involve elements of the fantastic, like magic, monsters and ghosts. Although Moomin, his parents and his girlfriend, Snorkmaiden, are trolls, they look like friendly hippopotamuses. Moomin is reminiscent of a big, chubby baby; there is something of Charlie Brown in him: Moomin is like a child beset by life's troubles and usually (but not always) too passive to get angry and fight back. Adults should appreciate Jansson's satirealthough she always provides happy endings, dark undercurrents are at play: one episode opens with Moomin attempting suicide; reunited with his missing parents, he's abandoned by them again. Jansson's deceptively childlike style masterfully conveys her characters' personalities. Moomin's mouth rarely appears, but his eyes, his brows and his gestures are expressive and endearing. (Oct.)

ムーミンのコミックスはもともとはイギリスの新聞で掲載をされていたので、英語のままのものを読みたいと以前から思っていました。
日本語版が筑摩書房さんから出版されているのでそれを集めていましたが、この英語版はまた違った楽しみ方があるのでこれから集めたいと思い、星５つにしました。
日本語版で集めている人はぜひ見てみて欲しいと思います。
表紙のデザインや紙質などとても雰囲気がよいです。
英語でもわりと読みやすいしわかりやすいです。なにしろ文字がタイプされたものではなく手書きの文字ということが一番良いと思います。（日本語版は日本語部分がすべてタイプされた文字なので。）
この本はまるまる一冊トーベさんが書かれた作品でした。わたしは弟のラルスさんよりもトーベさんの絵のほうがより好きなので、この一冊はかなり見ごたえがありました。とても素敵。
ただ、集めてゆく、となると少しサイズが大きい気がしますね。A4のファイルくらいの高さです。

イギリスの新聞で連載されていたマンガなので、訳本ではなくオリジナルです。
弟のラルス氏が英訳を手伝っていたそうなので、姉弟の共同作品ということになるでしょうか。
童話とはまた違った魅力に溢れていると思います。
コミックにしか出てこないキャラクターもいますし、童話との違いを探すのもまた面白いかもしれません。
分かりやすい英語だと思いますが、ぱらぱらとページを捲るだけでも絵本を見ているようで楽しいです。
日本語版だと少し小さいと感じていた方には特にお勧めです。
装丁はしっかりとしていて、質感も良くとても素敵です。

Wonderful
2006/11/18
形式:ハードカバー|Amazonが確認した購入
I discovered Tove Jansson's Moomin world while visiting Finland in the summer of 1999. There was an exhibit at the Tampere library that caught my attention and where I fell in love with this wonderful world she created. Being an American who adored Winnie the Pooh as a child (and still do as an adult) I always tell people who have never heard of Moomin's that they're kind of like the Finnish version of Winnie the Pooh. We visisted Moomin World while in Finland which was great fun. I have since collected all of the books translated in to English and love reading them myself or to my grade school age children who also now love Moomins. This particular book is a collection of the comic series Tove Jansson did for the Londan paper in the late 1950s. They are magical; witty; wonderful; warm; and just plain great fun. Even my first grader was laughing out loud when we read through them last night. Who doesn't love the comics? Quickly becoming obsolete in today's high tech world this book is a charming respite back to good old basic fun. There is great little tid bits of wisdom woven in to this wonderful imaginary world and I always find some trivit to ponder or chuckle. I will always be grateful for discovering this wonderful world of Moomins. I am so glad that I did and can pass on the magic to my own kids. I think this book is a must have for Moomin fans!

Good, but not nearly as good as the books
2007/4/4
形式:ハードカバー
I love children's literature, and Tove Jansson's Moominvalley books are in my opinion among the best children's books ever written. They are engaging adventures for a child, with excellent use of half-human, half-animal characters. At the same time, they provide more than enough depth of character, portrayal of family dynamics and other interpersonal dynamics, humor and gentle social satire, and expression of love of place to satisfy the adult reader.
The comic strips are good, but they are not nearly as good as the books. There simply aren't enough words, and the pictures are not sufficient to substitute for Jansson's masterful descriptions in the books. For the reader who already knows the books, the comic strips will be a pleasant diversion, just to see more of Jansson's work. But anyone who reads the comic strips without having read the books is missing out on the real treasure.

I didn't recognize my old friends, the Moomins
2010/3/27
形式:ハードカバー|Amazonが確認した購入
I wanted to love this book. I've loved all the Moomintroll books. The characters are real to me, and I love them all, even the naughty ones, like Little My, and the control-freaks called Hemulins.(I think I might be a Fillyjonk, myself.) But I was really surprised to find out how distorted all my favorite characters were in these comic strips.
For example, in the second story, Moominpappa asks Moominmamma to run away with him in search of adventure, not tell anybody, and leave their son at home wondering what happened to them. Moominmamma has some qualms about leaving her son without a word, but Moominpappa wins her over by saying "He'll get along." So they leave, and then Moomintroll is frantic with worry that they've drowned.
This was a real shocker to me! Moominmamma was always the mother everyone wished they had. Soft, round and comforting, her love for her "own, dear Moomintroll" is one of the sweetest things about the books. She makes tea and sandwiches, gives hugs, and takes little lost creatures into her house and treats them like her own children. That she would sneak away from her son without saying a word was beyond belief, considering that Jansson spent eight books building her character as the world's sweetest mother.
In one story, timid little Sniff bullies Moomintroll and cheats rich Aunt Jane out of a lot of money. In another, Moominpappa and the Snork Maiden drag the family to the Riviera for champagne, gambling, and pretending they are rich nobility. By this time I couldn't recognize any of my old friends except Moomintroll himself.
There's nothing really wrong or harmful about this book... except that it's nothing like the original Moomintroll books. Three of the four stories are obsessively about large amounts of money, which is hard to take when you remember Moominmamma as the one who, when she came into a lot of gold nuggets, used them to decorate the edges of her garden. Very little of the action happens in the Finnish forests, with its cast of assorted creeps, woodies, tree-spirits and trolls. I really regretted spending the money to buy this book new.
For those of you who loved the book, don't be angry with me. Remember that Fillyjonks never take well to changes of any sort.
