Karakterer
Sniff
Known as a little bit fearful and very kind person, Sniff is often included in the adventures of the Moomin family. He also lives at the Moomin house. Sniff loves everything shiny and valuable, and is sometimes quite infatuated by such things. He dreams of riches and wealth, but so far his plans haven’t paid off. Sniff also loves food, and where there is a delicious smelling dinner, that’s where Sniff is found. Unlike many inhabitants of Moominvalley, Sniff dreads water. Sniff is quick to get excited about things, but if any effort is needed to carry out a plan, he gets bored even more quickly. Sniff’s parents Muddler and Fuzzy lost him when he was very young. The Moomin family found him by chance and took him in. Sniff has pointy ears and a long tail. He was first seen in Tove Jansson’s novel The Moomins and the Great Flood.
