When all the people of the forest started making the same secret sign – a star with a tail on it –
Moomintroll, who was a thoughtful fellow, recognized it as a warning.

So he and Sniff, the small animal, set out for the Observatory on the Lonely Mountains to ask the Professor if a comet was really on its way to destroy the Earth.

And on their way they met some interesting people, and had some narrow escapes . .
