A new translation of Tove Jansson's "The Book About Moomin, Mymble & Little My" has just come out, and it's fucking smart. It's a PROPER children's book- it has holes in the pages to look through and everything! (Snufkin ain't in it, though, but there IS a Fillyjonk, and it's just as spooky/charming as it should be.)
AND Mervyn Peake's "Captain Slaughterboard Drops Anchor" has just been reprinted... loads of Peake illustrations, cool little story, AND it's about pirates.
Allegedly, I bought them for my niece for Christmas, but she can fuck off and get her own. Or I might buy another copy of each. |
