Who Will Comfort Toffle?: A Tale of Moomin Valley


Description

A SCANDINAVIAN MIDCENTURY CLASSIC BACK IN PRINT "Who Will Comfort Toffle?" is the timeless, magical tale of the wistful wallflower, Toffle-too shy to speak to anyone and too fearful of the world he is watching from afar. Lonely and sad, Toffle runs away from home and watches the magical cast of Moomin Valley-Mymble, My, Snufkin, the merry whompses and the Fillyjonk-celebrate and enjoy life. His insecurity continues to only serve his isolation until he has the courage to overcome his fears by reaching out to another frightened introvert, the mesmerizing Miffle. "Who Will Comfort Toffle?" is an endearing, introspective story that will speak to readers of all ages-anyone who has ever needed a friend to pull them out of their shell.Joining Drawn & Quarterly's archival series of "Moomin The Complete Tove Jansson Comic Strip," " Moomin, Mymble & Little My," and the "Moomintroll" chapter books is the glorious reprinting of the Tove Jansson classic children's book "Who Will Comfort Toffle?" with a loving translation by British poet Sophie Hannah.

"The View from Penthouse B" mixes sisters, online dating, and Bernie Madoff's victims into a witty confection. "Parade" Published to acclaim and controversy a decade ago, Sperm Wars is a revolutionary thesis about sex that turned centuries-old biological assumptions on their head. Evolution has programmed men to conquer and monopolize women while women, without ever knowing they Who Will Comfort Toffle?: A Tale of Moomin Valley download ebook pdf are doing it, seek the best genetic input on offer from potential sexual partners. In this book, best-selling author Robin Baker reveals these new facts of life: ten percent of children are not fathered by their "fathers;" less than one percent of a man's sperm is capable of fertilizing anything (the rest is there to fight off all other men's sperm); "smart" vaginal mucus encourages some sperm but blocks others; and a woman is far more likely to conceive through a casual fling than through sex with her regular partner. It's no wonder that Sperm Wars is a classic of popular science writing that will surprise, entertain, and even shock.
