Plot
Maisie Woods’ father won a fortune on the football pools—but her parents vowed that the money would not change them in any way. I still was causing lots of problems for Maisie.

Poor Little Rich Girl starts in Judy 915 (Jul. 23 1977). I don’t have issue 914, where presumably a trailer would have been printed, and there is no indication above the instalment in 915 that it is the first one, other than the comment ‘The Saturday That Changed The Woods’ Life’, but as it is the instalment in which Maisie and her friends are enjoying themselves on the rubbish tip, their favourite playground, prior to her father discovering that he has won the pools, I think it is sensible to assume that it is.
Translated into Dutch (as “Rijk zijn… óók niet alles” – Being Rich… Not All It’s Cracked Up to Be) and published in monthly Debbie Stripstory #4/1981.
