Late November, several of the moomin family‘s friends, Snirfkin, the Hemulen and Fillyfjonk, decide to visit them. Only finding the moomin family not at home, but their friends decide to stay.

This is an old library copy with the old library card for borrowing in the back. It was first borrowed in 1972.

#1970 #192025
2nd book for #WinterReadaton and #Adventathon

Andrew65 This brings back memories. 🎄🎄🎄 2y
AnneCecilie @Andrew65 For me too. I watched the cartoons in the 90s. But it was a little weird reading a moomin book without the moomins. This was also the first moomin book I read by Jansson. 2y
Librarybelle Oh! I love finding old library cards in books! 2y

Andrew65 @AnneCecilie I have a vague memory of picture books but would need to research to make sure I didn‘t make that up. Remember the cartoons well. 2y
Libby1 I just read this book last week too! One thing I read compared it to Waiting for Godot in Moominvalley. 2y

“Twilight is the border between day and night, and the shore is the border between sea and land. The border is longing: when both have fallen in love but still haven't said anything. The border is to be on the way. It is the way that is the most important thing.”

I‘ve only read The Summer Book, which is absolutely gorgeous. I haven‘t read this but I find this quote so beautiful. I‘ll surely read more of her next year!

Cinfhen That is lovely 😊 I still haven‘t read anything by this author yet 5y

A lovely little book about an odd, ragtag group of creatures who learn to live together - more or less! Beautiful prose.

Nothing compliments a vodka like some Moomins!
