Plot: Based on a popular Dutch children's book by Chris van Abkoude, this comedy-drama concerns Crumb, a much put-upon youngster whose poverty -stricken mother is forced to turn him over to the stern Mrs. Koster. However, Mrs. Koster proves to be a cruel taskmaster who insists Crumb bring her money before she'll feed him. Crumb's money-making schemes sometime cause him to run afoul of the police, and he has earned the enmity of most of the grownups around him when Mrs. Koster unexpectedly dies. To Crumb's surprise, he's taken in by Chris, the owner of a grocery store who develops a soft spot for the scruffy tyke. Crumb is happy, but his joy is short-lived when the market is destroyed in a fire; without a guardian, he is sent to an orphanage presided over by the mean-spirited Mr. Keyzer.
