...agreeing to baby-sit with our younger daughter Barbara, who is four years old. This was a bad mistake. My wife operates our apartment on an open-door policy. That is, she always keeps both doors unlocked, a big jar of candy on the television set, a bag of apples by the refrigerator, ice cream and soda pop in the refrigerator, and a box of cookies on the kitchen table. It's understandable that our place is a favorite hangout for the neighborhood kids. And there are lots of them. Sometimes they come in platoons...

The four leading actors do excellent work. Actress Parker is spirited and warm as the heroine. John Forsythe is subtle and easy, a sort of walking diploma from V.M.I.
