Choose the kind of Moomin time they enjoy
A familiar theme is more useful when the gift also matches an activity the recipient already likes.
Reading or making
Choose Book One of the Tove Jansson comic strips for someone who wants to read Moomin comics. Choose the 12-piece stamp set instead for someone who enjoys decorating notebooks, letters or cards.
If you do not know whether they own the book, check first. For the stamps, check whether they will also need ink.
