This Dr. Seuss tale is brought to the screen in the story of 10-year-old Bart Collins (Tommy Rettig) who much prefers playing baseball and spending time with his dog than practicing the piano. One night, Bart has a nightmare in which he stumbles into the castle of his piano teacher (Hans Conried)–now named Dr. T.–who has kidnapped 500 young boys and is forcing them to practice the piano 24 hours a day, all week long. Even worse, Bart discovers that Dr. T. has hypnotized Bart's mother (Mary Healy), and she is now his helpmate. Bart is determined to put an end to Dr. T.'s "school" and to save his mother, and with help from a plumber (Peter Lind Hayes), Bart succeeds in rescuing them all.
