What is Moomin and the New Friend about?

When Moomintroll and Sniff discover a message in a bottle, they set off on a daring journey to Lonely Island aboard a little raft. The sea soon turns wild, and a fierce storm puts them in danger. Just when they need help most, they meet Too-Ticky, a clever and resourceful new friend. Back home, Snorkmaiden worries that Moomintroll will forget her. Together, they learn that making a new friend can bring joy without taking anything away from an old one.
