Moomins always sleep through the winter - or they did until the year Moomintroll woke up and found he couldn't go back to sleep again. If you found a tiny golden dragon with green paws, would you know what to do with it? Moomintroll thinks he does, but when he takes his new-found pet home, things don't quite work out as planned. He has no idea what to do with himself - it seems everything has already been done! So, with Sniff, he sets off on an expedition to ask the Professor if a comet is really on its way to destroy the Earth. But it’s all still in service of Tove’s original drawings. 1973 by Tove Jansson (Author) 487 ratings Book 6 of 8: Moomins See all formats and editions Kindle Edition 3.99 Read with Our Free App Audiobook 0.00 Free with your Audible trial Hardcover 10.09 5 Used from 5.27 16 New from 8.

It all began with a hot day in June, and a volcano dropping black ash on Moominmamma's washing.Then a crack appeared in the ground, and Moomintroll's toothbrush slipped straight down into the dark and yawning earth. The Janssons have long been protective of the Moomins. It all begins when Moominpappa tries on a magic hat that makes exciting and funny things happen. Here at last is Moominpappa's promised life story - from the days when he was abandoned in a newspaper parcel on the doorstep of a Moomin orphanage, to when he ran away to see the world and was lucky enough to meet Moominmamma.Īlthough they're small, fat and shy creatures, Moomins have the most amazing adventures. The book forms the basis of episodes 9, 10, 13, 24, and 36 of the 1990 series.'They can't have moved away without saying a word!' Winter is coming, and the Fillyjonk, the Hemulen, Toft, and Mymble, are all waiting in Moominvalley to see the Moomins return home. In these nine delightfully funny stories, readers will discover how the Moomin family spend their first Christmas out of hibernation, how they save young.
