rosieeroots asked: hey mod!! this is an odd question, but do you believe the moomin stories are appropriate for a 3 year old? I never read them as a child but I know my cousin would LOVE the illustrations, i just don’t know the subject matter very well. I know there’s some stories like the invisible girl and stuff that my cousin wouldn’t understand. you always have so much knowledge I thought you’d be a good person to ask!
up to you! I think I started reading them when I was about 5? but really it’s your call. I was reading stuff that was ‘too old from me’ my whole life but there’s a difference between letting kids read what the hell they want, and making them read stuff too soon because you want them to read it. if you’re worried things might scare them a lil’ too much right now, maybe hold off for a year or two- the stories aren’t going anywhere!
