A nice children's picture where the story of Tom Thumb is brought to the screen and Russ Tamblyn, who was Oscar nominated the year before for the blockbuster "Peyton Place," and who also appeared in "Seven Brides for Seven Brothers," that same year was perfect for the part of small Tom.

Granted as a wish by his childless parents, Tom immediately sings and dances his way into the hearts of the viewers.

Peggy Lee must be given credit for writing the songs for this film and Terry Thomas and Peter Sellers steal the film with their villain roles.

A little tedious at times, especially near the film's end, the picture brings joy to our youngsters.
