Description

A gorgeous picture book homage to celebrated Moomin author Tove Jansson. Tove and her family go to the island with no address every summer. After checking to make sure that everything in the cabin is exactly as it should be, young Tove sets off on an adventure. She finds some interesting salvage on the beach, she visits the grotto and she offers to babysit her strange little friend's five wild daughters. But when the weather takes a turn, Tove finds this task is more than she bargained for . . . Through Lauren Soloy's brilliant art and storytelling, this imagined day on the island with no address pays tribute to Tove Jansson's wild and beautiful imagination and explores both the exhilaration of adventure and the comfort of coming home.

Author Biography:

LAUREN SOLOY has lived on both coasts of Canada, always within reach of the sea. She currently lives in Nova Scotia, in a house that is exactly 100 years older than she is, with her librarian husband, two curious children, an ever-expanding collection of books, two hives of bees and one grumpy cat. She is the author and illustrator of When Emily Was Small, Etty Darwin and the Four Pebble Problem and The Hidden World of Gnomes, as well as the illustrator of I's the B'y: The Beloved Newfoundland Folk Song and A Tulip in Winter.
