Or the frog and the fuzz? A bunch of kids in a neighborhood where there's no park for them to play in have to be creative to make their fun, and they decide to look for an abandoned house to turn into their pet zoo. Unfortunately, there's a group of jewel thieves hiding in the giant old white elephant they come across, and fortunately, members of the children's welfare association come across it and contemplate turning it into an activity center, complete with back yard.
Another children's "quota quickie", and at under an hour is pretty snappy. The dog's adorable, the wisecracking cockatoo an absolute delight, and the frog hopping happy. There's a few glimpses of a few other critters as well. It's a reminder of how kids of all kinds and ages got together and made their own fun, and didn't require electricity. The location photography has lots of interesting looking suburban dwellings, nicely shot. Starring Kathleen Harrison, George Coulouris, and Geoffrey Sumner, one of the few entries of this series to rely on a few cinematic names.
