Leonard S. Berman

A cat is left homeless when its owner moves to a senior citizens home that doesn't allow pets.

Deep in the heavily guarded vault of jovial King Gunther lies the most cherished and wonderful of all national treasures - the Moonstone Gem. The good king's troubles begin when the evil baron manages to steal the priceless jewel.

The first of many film adaptations of the classic children's book by Margery Williams, this version by novice filmmaker Leonard S. Berman is a unique time capsule of live action (and puppetry?) seen by countless schoolchildren.
