By that time the whole of Helsinki was full of amazed People flying. No one did any work... All the new-born babies were flying and all the very old people and their cats and dogs and guinea-pigs and monkeys just everybody! Even the President was out flying! - Sculptor's Daughter by Tove Jansson

Then everything started shrinking. Every piece of furniture became elongated and narrow and disappeared towards the ceiling. There was something crawling under the rag rugs in the hall. - Sculptor's Daughter by Tove Jansson
"A dark man went on shovelling outside the door and all of a sudden I started to cry and I screamed: I'll bite him! I'll go outside and bite him!" - Sculptor's Daughter by Tove Jansson
