Little Angel #8

When the Higgins family—Harry, Dora, and Little Angel—set out to tour America's national parks, they're prepared for an educational adventure and quality family bonding. What they get instead is a wild cross-country journey where Little Angel's mischievous charm turns every stop into chaos, from the Mammoth Caves of Kentucky to Yellowstone to the Grand Canyon. By the time they limp back home, the parks themselves seem relieved to see them go!

When Harry Higgins insists on staying home to watch television, his wife Dora demands an evening out at the movies—and solves the babysitting problem by taking Little Angel along to a drive-in theatre. What follows is a series of mishaps as the spirited young girl discovers all the new and fascinating things a drive-in has to offer, from the massive outdoor screen to the mysterious equipment and snack bar. By the time Harry finally locates her, the family's peaceful movie night has gone delightfully off the rails.

When Little Angel Higgins tries to help her mother Dora prepare dinner, her well-intentioned but disastrous efforts transform the kitchen into chaos—forcing her father Harry to take the whole family out to eat instead. At the restaurant, Little Angel's appetite and antics prove even more catastrophic than her cooking, turning what should have been a simple meal into a night neither parent will soon forget.

Little Angel Higgins heads to the state fair with her father Harry while her mother Dora enters her apple cinnamon pies in the baking contest. When Little Angel spots the famous Dare-Devil Kid performing death-defying stunts, she decides she wants to become famous too—leading her into one misadventure after another across the fairgrounds. As her worried parents search for her, Little Angel learns that sometimes the real excitement comes from simpler pleasures than she expected.
