Moominvalley in November
Now that autumn is turning into winter, a group of unlikely friends – including the Fillyjonk, the Hemulen, and Toft – are waiting in Moominvalley to see the Moomins, for winter doesn't seem right without them.
But the Moomins are not at home. So all the visitors settle down to await their return, and oddly enough find themselves warming up to their new life together. For Moominvalley is Moominvalley still, even without the Moomins in it.
