Together with En ettas dagbok and Roberta Karlsson och kungen they were later all released in a collection called "Mimmis bok".

For the book, Viveca Sundvall was awarded the Astrid Lindgren Prize in 1985.[2]

Plot

Mimmi and Roberta sneak on Enok, a man who is almost 60 years old and runs a shoe store. The girls later decide to "adopt" him as a "grandfather". The book is more serious as the previous, as Enok later gets ill and dies. Mimmi and Roberta later hold an own memorail service for him instead of attending the ordinary funeral.
