Childrens Anthology with the first chapter of the Hobbit and a Moomintroll story

I read The Hobbit in 1963 after reading a large format children's illustrated anthology which had a Tove Jansson Moomintroll story or chapter and the first chapter of The Hobbit along with other stories I don't remember.
Thus this anthology would have been published in 1963 or earlier.
Several years ago I managed to identify this anthology somehow on the internet. I believe there were several editions published under various titles in the 1950s and 60s.
But now I don't remember the title of that anthology.
I just now looked up J.R.R. Tolkien at the Internet Speculative Fiction Database and couldn't find any record of the first chapter of The Hobbit appearing in an anthology.

I also looked up Tove jansson there: http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/ea.cgi?21482
and the only anthology listed with a Moomin story was this one:
http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/pl.cgi?2974763
And it includes stories published long after 1963 and nothing by Tolkien.
So I wonder if anyone is familiar with that anthology.
