Synopsis by Hal Erickson

Popular British juvenile star Mandy Miller carries the dramatic weight of Adventure in the Hopfields on her firm little shoulders. After breaking one of her mother's prize pieces of bric-a-brac, Miller must scrimp and save to pay for a replacement. A group of tough kids steal her money, tie her up and leave her in a decrepit old mill. The junior-grade crooks turn heroes when they rescue her during a violent electrical storm. Surprisingly tense for a kiddie-matinee feature, Adventure in the Hopfields was based on The Hop Dog, a book by Nora Lavin and Molly Thorp.
