Does that have to do with Snufkin being pushed out of his comfort zone and finally showing a little more emotion than usual? Probably. It's just hilarious seeing him navigate something that he's for once not an expert/comfortable at.
That on top of the Moomins taken further out of their comfort zones too, it just makes for a fun read.
A huge flood pours through Moominvalley, covering all of Moominhouse. The Moomins, therefore, need to find a new home (of course, lmao, logically! That's their first and main issue. I love these books). When they find a what they assume is a deserted house floating by, they promptly move in. Little do they know it's a theater owned by a cranky old Fillyjonk! Meanwhile Snufkin and Little My are on their own adventure electrocuting Park Keepers (just a normal day for Snufkin ...).
This is an especially fast read, because I just couldn't get enough. It's a quick page-turner, and I couldn't stop laughing through it all. The illustrations are, as always, stunning, though always improving. I'm so glad I found these books; they're like coming home somehow. I can't wait to read more.
