I think this is my favorite of the Moomin books so far. I love Moomintroll's journey of self-discovery. Starts out as a post-apocalyptic nightmare but turns into a regenerative vision of hope. Just what we need these days!
After reading several other Moomin books this past month, this is still my favorite so far. Just a perfect winter read.
Kuunneltiin lasten kanssa töissä. Nämä on niin ihania <3
Prieks, ka Zvaigzne pārizdot Trollīšus. Plānoju beidzot izlasīt visus, bērnībā tie mani neuzrunāja.

Why did I not read Tove Jansson when I was a kid? I'd have loved them even more then than I do now. This one is my favourite so far. The Moomins are in hibernation, but Moomintroll wakes up early. His family continue to sleep. Moomintroll gets to experience winter for the first time.
Initially, he looks like he's all alone, but there are other creatures who gradually pop up as the story rolls along: Too-Tricky; Little My; Sorry-oo, the dog that wants to be a Wolf until it doesn't; The Hemulan on skis; a Troll ancestor that lived in the cupboard; Invisible Shrews; Salome the Little Creep and others. So Moomintroll gets to experience Winter, which he never does and the book is just fabulous.
The illustrations help bring it to life but the Moomins have a life of their own. Jansson has managed to create a world, which might be much less 'thick' than, say, J R R Tolkien's worlds but still sparkles with life. I'd like to think there are valleys out in Finland where Moomins dwell still, getting on with their quiet lives.
And, whatever happens to Moomintroll, you always know that Moominmamma will be there to make everything seem good and calm again.
Brilliant. If you've got kids I envy you the joy of being able to read this book with them.
