Moomin ABC & Read Hour

Reading, Writing and the Moomins exhibition

#ReadHour - a Celebration of Reading Read Hour is celebrated on September 8, coinciding with UN’s International Literacy Day. The campaign goal is to inspire everyone and particularly young people to read and to establish a celebration of reading. It’s also a way to initiate a public debate about reading.

Read Hour is a Finnish initiative started by the Children and Youth Foundation in 2019, following the PISA surveys and continued decline in young people’s reading and writing skills. In Finland, as many as one in eight young people graduate from primary school without adequate reading skills and over 60 percent of boys said they only read if forced.

Research shows that reading and writing is a fundamental tool to reach global goals with regards to sustainability, according to UN. Based on these insights, Read Hour was celebrated in Finland for the first time in 2019.

Sweden and UK followed the same initiative in 2021 and Norway is set to launch in 2022.

Moomin Characters is a sponsor of Read Hour and also runs the project “Reading, writing and the Moomins”, a project based on Tove Janssons’s legacy. Spread the word by posting #ReadHour in social media.

The exhibition Reading, Writing and the Moomins is a concept exhibition based on the stories and feelings in Tove Jansson’s wonderful world of Moominvalley. Developed in connection to the release of the book “Moominvalley Alphabet”, the exhibition can scale up or down and suits schools as well as libraries, museums, or commercial areas. The exhibition consists of three separate parts - a collection of posters that any exhibitor can print themselves, solid artwork pieces and a touring exhibition of physical constructions.

Complemented by educational material based on the emotions evoked by the Moomin stories, visitors are invited to explore their feelings through discussion, exercises and play.

Tove Jansson Work and Love Finnish-Swedish writer and artist Tove Jansson (1914 - 2001) achieved worldwide fame as the creator of the Moomins, written and illustrated between 1945 and 1970. The books about the brave, adventurous, yet family focused and home-loving Moomins have been translated into more than 55 languages and are still in print all over the world today. The Moomins were only a part of Jansson’s prodigious output. Already admired in Nordic art circles as a painter, cartoonist and illustrator, she would go on to write a series of classic novels and short stories. She remains Scandinavia’s best loved author. Tove Jansson’s work reflected the tenets of her life: her love of family, of nature, and her insistence on freedom to pursue her art. “Work and love” was the motto she chose for herself and her approach to both was joyful and uncompromising.

Tove Jansson is born on August 9th, the eldest child of an artistic family.

The second book, Comet in Moominland (Swedish title Kometjakten / Mumintrollet på kometjakt / Kometen kommer) is published. Comet in Moominland is often seen as the first novel in the series, as it introduces many of the main characters, like Snufkin and Snorkmaiden, and is set in Moominvalley.

The Book about Moomin, Mymble and Little My (Swedish title: Hur gick det sen?) was the first Moomin picture book by Tove Jansson, published in 1952 in Swedish.

Moominland Midwinter (Swedish title: Trollvinter), the sixth in the series of Tove Jansson’s Moomin books, is published.

While preserving the charm of the previous novels, the story involves a more in-depth exploration of Moomintroll’s character than before.

1948 1935 Tove studies art both in Finland and abroad and she starts making Moomintroll paintings. Her first Moominlike character is later seen in the magazine Garm in 1943.

The 1961 English publication features a foreword “by Moominmamma“, where she explains the nature of Moomins fearing that English children may not have heard of them; she also apologises for her “rottn” English.

With Moominvalley underwater, will Moomin’s romantic tendencies get him into trouble?

Moomins are forced to prove once and for all whether or not they’re related to hippopotamuses.

As the Moomins prepare to hibernate through what is going to be the worst winter yet, several unwelcomed guests take advantage of the Moomins’ generosity and keep the family awake throughout the long winter. Their quirky but needy guests prevent the Moomins from hibernating and the chaos only increases with the arrival of a little nibling determined to find out everyone’s secrets. One by one, the nibling sees what the Moomins and each of their houseguests do when no one else is looking. But everyone is ashamed of what the nibling has seen and is determined to keep their secret activities, well, a secret!
