Moominland Midwinter

Starring John Finnemore and Samantha Bond. Moomintroll wakes in the middle of winter, when the rest of his family are hibernating, and Moominvalley is deep in snow. Anxious and alone, he is forced to venture out into a frozen world, where he has to find new friends, cope with new dangers, and learn to live in a new and hostile environment.

Gradually he learns to accept the strange and sometimes frightening conditions in which he finds himself. He survives the Great Cold, and comes to terms with his failure to learn to ski (a useful lesson for listeners of all ages).

He makes many mistakes, and when refugees arrive in Moominvalley, fleeing the cold, will he do the right thing, or is it all a bit much?
