This was a very enjoyable entry of the series for me, as Blondie, hoodwinked by a salesman of questionable integrity that her son Baby Dumpling has a genius I.Q., instantly tries to enlist him in Grade 3 of the local school. It sports a very touching ending in which the boy befriends a rich, troubled girl and tries to help her walk again.
