Like Moominpappa at Sea, the work is more somber in tone than previous books in the series, and it has been suggested that this is a direct result of the death of Jansson's mother, Signe Hammarsten-Jansson, during the year that it was written.

Odjavna pesma finsko-japanskog animea „Mumijevi” u bosanskohercegovačkoj sihronizaciji započinje stihom: „Kad sunce zađe mrak te snađe” - neočekivano melanholično za odjavnu špicu crtanog filma o veselom životu i nežnim priključenijima trolova koji nalikuju na nilske konje (ne, oni nisu nilski konji, postoji čitava jedna epizoda posvećena ovom problemu).Moominvalley in November is the last book in The Moomins series and definitely one of my favourite books written by Tove Jansson.

Grandpa-Grumble gets a stomach ache and refuses to take his medicines till the others throw him and the Ancestor a party.
