Drip drip drip . . . a leaky pipe leads to a big problem--can
Alfie help patch everything up? Mom and Dad have gone out for the
night, leaving Maureen MacNally to look after Alfie and Annie Rose.
Everything is quiet until water starts dripping from the ceiling.
With a little help from Mr. and Mrs. MacNally, the leak is soon
under control, but only Alfie can figure out why Annie Rose is
still upset.
