Where are you Mumimmama???

"The story of Moomin valley" was created by Finnish author Tove Jansson. It took her 25 years to finish the whole book. In 1966 the book received the Andersen Award.

Moomin valley lives Moomin family and their dearly friends. There is a meaning behind every Moomin story. It's not only for children but also for adults.

Moomin look like hippo, but they are not hippo. Children love Moomin characters, Bobo is no exception. At the beginning, I was not that interested in them, perhaps it was Bobo's influence, I started to like them too.

Bobo's grandma has been buying many Moomin books for Bobo. Thanks to Niuniu's mammy, she copied Moomin DVD.

Bobo has a set of Moomin characters. They are Mumimmama, Mumimpapa, Moomintroll, Little My, Sniff, Hemulen, Snufkin, Snorkmaiden, Snork. Because Little My is too small, Sniff has too sharp ears and Snufkin has a hat easily drop. I only allow Bobo to play all Moomins and Hemulen.












Bobo used to request Hemulen while she brushes teeth each day :-) Then there was occasion, Snork was missing. He was finally found under the carpet when I was vacuuming. Last week, Mumimmama disappeared as well, so far still no sign of her ;-(

Where are you Mumimmama? We MISS you....
