Little Lulu #220

In "Surprise Party," Little Lulu sets up a ruse to spend time alone with Wilbur, but her plan unravels when he lets slip that only he’s invited—sparking a wave of hurt feelings among Gloria, Willie, Tubby, Iggy, Annie, and even Mrs. Darling. When the entire gang crashes the party, Lulu finds herself surrounded by friends and food, her little lie turning into a surprise success.

In this classic 1974 Little Lulu tale, Lulu Moppet is sent to the supermarket on a simple errand—only to find her job complicated by Alvin Jones, who insists he’s a dog named Rover. With dogs banned from the store, Lulu ties him up near a display of real dogs, but Alvin’s antics unleash a flurry of chaos as he sets the animals free. As the store descends into pandemonium, the dog catcher arrives, and Lulu must scramble to explain the mess—especially when Alvin vanishes. When she finally tracks him down, it turns out he’s already back home, where Mrs. Jones gives Lulu the green light to deliver a well-earned lesson.

When Lulu’s ball rolls into Wilbur’s yard and he refuses to give it back, she’s not about to let it go — especially when his model airplane crashes onto her doorstep. Now Wilbur must haul a wagon full of balls to make things right, but Lulu’s not letting go without a fight.

In "Gold Fever," Witch Hazel schemes to steal the elves' golden dust, enlisting Little Scarecrow Boy in her plan—only for the cart to spin out of control, crashing into the boy and a passing Wandering Minstrel. The Minstrel, thinking he’s struck gold, ties up Scarecrow Boy to fill his bags, unaware the dust is no ordinary treasure. When Scarecrow Boy spots Hazel’s wand nearby, he turns the tables with a clever spell that sends the gold dust swirling back to its rightful owners.

In "The Peacemaker," Little Lulu tries to mend a rift between Tubby and Willie after she catches them in a real fight—despite their earlier playful sparring. When she stages a series of fake emergencies to bring them together, each rescue attempt only sparks more bickering, leaving her scrambling to keep peace. The real cause of their feud? A silly zoo debate over which baboon looks most like Lulu—and when the truth comes out, even the black eyes can’t ruin their newfound friendship.
