So much for papa not liking money

I'm not sure it's about money, so much as nobility.

Moomin stories often feature "nobility" in the form of fantasy-story style kings, princesses, and princes.

That said, this story was the first time Tove was hit with some controversy, as they got criticized for being "too bourgeois".
