The story starts realistically enough, with 10-year-old Penny Hale (Temple) sharing a basement apartment with her widowed father Jeff (Charles Farrell, in his final Fox film).

Ordered by pompous hotel concierge Waters (Franklin Pangborn) to keep her place, Penny nonetheless has fun wandering the lobbies of the posh establishment under the watchful and protective eyes of her friends...

Shirley Temple the regular girl messing up the rich kids curls and making a man out of him! Yeah, its you average cute Temple movie. By 1938 her movies was pretty much one formula and didn't feel all that special as some of her earlier pictures. But she's a pro and 20th Century Fox knew how to make a policed production, so it's good. But I don't know where this movie would have been had it not been for Franklin Pangborn being a rotten busybody and that raining musical number with Bill Robinson!
