Spring has come to Moominvalley. And to Moomin's delight, it has brought his best friend Snufkin home from his winter wanderings with plenty of exciting tales of far-away lands.

When Snufkin takes Moomin on a surprise adventure - filled with unfamiliar and exciting sights, sounds, and smells - Moomin feels just like a real pioneer! But will he discover that some of the greatest adventures can be found on his very own doorstep?

Tove Jansson was born in Finland in 1914. She began her career as a cartoonist and went on to write and illustrate many books for adults and children. She drew her first Moomin in the 1930s, just for fun, and in 1945 he became a character in a children's story. Tove became world-famous for her Moomin books, which began with The Moomins and the Great Flood in 1945, closely followed by Comet in Moominland in 1946, Finn Family Moomintroll in 1948 and six more Moomin adventures. During the winter months Tove lived and worked in Helsinki, but in the summertime she stayed on a beautiful remote island in the Gulf of Finland with her long-term partner, the artist Tuulikki Pietilä. Tove Jansson received many prestigious awards during her lifetime, including the international Hans Christian Andersen Medal. She died in 2001, aged eighty-seven.
