Finnish?
Overheard at a small public library in the United States:
Woman sounding accusatory, gesturing to the Moomintroll books: You should have these in Finnish!
Librarian, bemused: ...
Seriously, I don't think she said anything in response. What could one say? Candidly, it's impressive that a smallish public library has the Moomin books at all.

The SO just told me that as it turns out, Tone Jansson is from the Swedish-speaking minority of Finland. So it wouldn't have been in Finnish anyway. Heh.
