Synopsis
Elaine and Mimi are out on a nature hike in their local rainforest when they run into a huge development sign advertising the clearcut of the forest to make way for a huge upscale housing development. Elaine launches a campaign to save the rainforest. But when Mimi hears that Griffen- a famous young rock musician, and national spokesman for Save the Rainforest- is coming to town, she decides that Elaine and Griffen are "destined to be together." Mimi hatches a plan to have Elaine take Griffen on a tour of their local rainforest- only he has never been in the woods, and he hates everything about it!

Production notes
The world is simple, just poorly managed...
A snappy, savvy, family-oriented show about 11-year-old Mimi Morton, problem-solver extraordinaire! Mimi trains her earnest problem-fixing skills on her friends and family.
Mimi's family surname is variously called "Mortin" and "Morton" in studio publicity.
In the first two seasons, episodes each consisted of one cartoon. In the third season, they were each separable into two 11-minute cartoons.
