Synopsis:

In this Noveltoon short, the oversized but naïve duckling Baby Huey waddles onto a tranquil farmyard, eager to make friends with the resident bears. His boundless enthusiasm and comical clumsiness—toppled fences, runaway wheelbarrows, and accidental haystack explosions—lead to a series of slapstick mishaps. Despite the initial chaos, the kindly Bear family comes to appreciate Huey’s good heart, culminating in a rollicking farmyard dance that unites the unlikely friends.

Trivia:

• Part of Famous Studios’ Noveltoon series released by Paramount Pictures, featuring Baby Huey’s earliest theatrical appearance.
• The character was created by cartoonists Martin Taras and Bob Givens, inspired by the popularity of “big baby” humor in the 1950s.
• Though produced under copyright, many of the original Paramount cartoons lapsed into the public domain in the 1970s due to non-renewal.
• Mae Questel, famous for voicing Betty Boop and Olive Oyl, contributed vocal effects for the bear family in this short.
