Screenplay Idea...but I need help!

Here's the Story Idea:
A Six year-old named Joey is tricked by his older brother into believing the Police are after him. Joey goes on the lamb and embarks upon an exciting journey of adventure and self-discovery.

Simply put, it's HOME ALONE meets THE FUGITIVE.

The genres encompassed are Adventure, Family, and Comedy.

What do you think? Would this make a good Film/Story?

"On the lam." Your first step is not to make mistakes like that.

Oops on "Lamb"...Thank you so much. That would've been embarrassing.

Not a bad idea.

It is never easy writing the script, but if you get the tone right I think it could work.
