The character of Gidget was modeled off author Frederick Kohner's teenage daughter, Kathy, and her affinity for the Malibu surf scene. His book spawned several movies launching a film career for Sandra Dee and a short-lived tv series starring Sally Field. The song was written by Howard Greenfield who wrote many a tune with Neil Sedaka including "Breaking Up is Hard To Do". This is a piece of fluff, but a nice bouncy one provided by Billy Carr.
