Reception
Vincent Canby of The New York Times called it "another of those bland little confections turned out regularly by the Disney studio". Arthur D. Murphy of Variety declared it "an amusing comedy-romance" with "the usual professional Disney blend of children, animals, humor and charm". Kevin Thomas of the Los Angeles Times called it "a typical Disney family film". The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "Olive farming certainly provides an unusual background, but otherwise all is innocuous, extrovertly cheerful and good-humoured—and very dull." ==References==
