This book is often funny, full of perilous encounters, and touched here and there by a spirit of satire. Consider the terrible price Moomintroll pays for violating the custom about whistling on stage, and the delight Snufkin takes (and we along with him) in fooling the Park Keeper, abolishing the rules posted all over the park, and liberating small children from their joyless, regimented existence. Of course Snufkin too pays a price for his mischief, by becoming responsible for a gaggle of little creatures.

It is a hard heart that cannot warm to these characters, such as the smart-mouthed Little My, the serious and inquisitive Whomper, the melancholy Fillyjonk, and even the officious Hemulens. To say nothing of the ruggedly independent Snufkin, and the Snork Maiden with her silly notion about picking nine kinds of flower on Midsummer Eve.

Would that everyone had childhood memories as carefree as the adventures of these little animals and their fuzzy troll friends! Why, you'll just have to put such memories into your head. How? By reading this book and others in the series!
