SUMMER MAGIC Coloring Contest

August 07, 1963.  This movie starred Hayley Mills, Burl Ives, Dorothy McGuire, Deborah Walley, Eddie Hodges and Una Merkel.  From my movie guide, "Disney rehash of MOTHER CAREY'S CHICKENS has McGuire as widow who raises family on a shoestring in rambling Maine house.  Burl Ives sings The Ugly Bug Ball.  Pleasant but forgettable."  I have never seen this movie.  SUMMER MAGIC was directed by James Neilson.
