Moomin And The Golden Tail

When a charismatic prophet comes to town, the residents of Moominvalley are easily convinced to follow his doctrine for true happiness.

One day Moomin notices that his tail seems to be thinning. Worried that Snorkmaiden will no longer love him if his tail goes bald, he consults the family doctor and several tail specialists, and even gets an X-ray. Nothing helps!

Finally Moominmamma cooks up a magic potion, and it works like a charm, but now Moomin's lustrous new tail is, well, solid gold!
