In 1942, Mary Pickford hoped to personally produce this film for United Artists with Shirley Temple. After several years of sitting on the shelf, she sold the property to 20th Century Fox.
"The Screen Guild Theater" broadcast a 30-minute radio adaptation of the film on September 30, 1946, with Peggy Ann Garner, Allyn Joslyn, and Barbara Whiting reprising their roles.
This was Barbara Whiting's film debut.
