{"product_id":"moominpapa-at-sea","title":"Moominpapa At Sea","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eMoominpappa decides the family needs a new life, loads everyone into a boat and moves them to a lonely lighthouse on a bare island. What follows is one of the most quietly profound things Tove Jansson ever wrote: a story about restlessness and belonging, about fathers and disappointment and the sea, told with such gentleness that children absorb it completely without realising quite how much is going on. This collector's edition, with its original 1950s and 60s artwork and that extraordinary painted cover, is the one to own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWe love it because:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOf all the Moomin books, this one stays with you the longest.
