    Annotation:

    Mamma, wake up, said Moomin anxiously. Something's on. They call it Christmas. (Jansson 1963, 163.) When I was little, my mother often read aloud to my brother and me. Amongst our favourite stories were the Moornin books written by Tove Jansson and Midsummer Madness, Moominland Midwinter, Comet in Moominland, Finn Family Moomintroll and Tales from Moomin Valley were read over and over again. As a child, I was only aware of the stories as tales about the Moornins who lived in a somewhat strange and exciting, but at the same time very secure world. When as an adult I returned to the Moomin books, several other levels and meanings opened themselves up to me. I now find myself appreciating, among other things, the anarchistic, freedom loving, and liberal aspects of the stories. Consequently with the knowledge and experience gained over the years my position as a reader has gradually changed.
