Bookroo's summary

As winter descends on Moominvalley, a curious group of friends, including the Fillyjonk, the Hemulen, and Toft, gather in anticipation of the Moomins' return. Yet, the Moomins are nowhere to be found. In their absence, these unlikely companions must navigate the season together, discovering warmth and camaraderie in unexpected places. Will their newfound bonds be enough to make Moominvalley feel like home again? Dive into a tale of friendship and adaptation in a world where the familiar is missing, but the spirit of community endures.

From the publisher

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.
