Moomin and the Spring Surprise

The Moomin family is deep in its long winter sleep, waiting for Too-Ticky’s barrel organ to announce the arrival of spring. When an unfamiliar rattling sound wakes Moomintroll early, he must find the courage to explore the snowy valley alone. What begins as a mysterious disturbance soon leads to a delightful seasonal surprise in this colourful story about bravery, curiosity and the first signs of spring.
