The thing about Moomin books is that they are also dark, one character is pretty much depression personified. I hope they won't make this into a "disney version" of Moomin.

"Show" as in gallery showing

Hosted at the Brooklyn Public Library, the exhibition takes a deep dive into the Moomin universe and the work of creator Tove Jansson.
