When Lulu is hired to baby sit Alvin, she finds him a lot to handle in this decently executed Famous Studios cartoon.
The baby sitter with an obstreperous child was and is a standard cartoon plot and while the work on this one is up to Famous Studios' usual standards for the era, it doesn't do much but run through the standard bits. Indeed, in some ways, it has bits that are out of date. There is a dream sequence in which Lulu pursues the baby into the Stork Club -- staffed entirely by storks, of course -- and she runs into babies who are modeled on movie stars. However, the movie stars are the same ones the audience would have expected a decade earlier, including W.C. Fields, who had died two years before this cartoon was produced!
