Who Will Comfort Toffle?


A tale of Moomin Valley sees Toffle driven from his home by the frightening noises of the forest. Too shy, at first, to approach the many colourful Moomin characters he passes along the way, he gains confidence by discovering a scared and lonely Miffle who needs his help.


Toffle's quest to save Miffle from the dreadful Groke is an inspiring tale that every child (and many adults) are sure to identify with.

Product Information

A tale of Moomin Valley sees Toffle driven from his home by the frightening noises of the forest.

"In a children's book there must be a path where the author stands still and the child walks on. A threat or a wonder that is never explained. A face that never shows itself entire." Tove Jansson

The writer and artist Tove Jansson (1914-2001) is a Scandinavian national treasure: She has a museum dedicated to her work in her native Finland and the Moomin characters adorn everything from mugs to schoolbags. Elsewhere, Moomin stories have been published in 35 languages.
