Product Description

Pippi always does things her own way. When she cleans her kitchen, she ties scrub brushes to her feet. When she has a picnic, she serves pancakes. One thing is for sure-there's never a dull moment when Pippi is around!

"Pippi Longstocking . . . has inspired generations of children with her spunk and power."
-Kirkus Reviews

1.0 out of 5 stars I was disappointed, December 4, 2007

By	ddemong - See all my reviews

i thought i'd found a pippi we hadn't read before, but this is merely a (more heavily illustrated) excerpt from the original "pippi"--which can be had in its entirety for the same price!

5.0 out of 5 stars A children's classic, August 2, 2008

By	Fydly "bookworm" (Easton, CT USA) - See all my reviews

I bought this book for my niece aged 8 who is also a bookworm in her own domain. She enjoyed it thoroughly and goes back for a chapter or 2 from time to time "just to live in that world for a while" in her own words.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great girl herione, September 14, 2009

By	Kevin Hall (Wa, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a great read for all ages, I read all three in the series to my daughter when she was 6 and she loved them. It is great to have a female character who is so outrageous, the antics she gets up to are so funny. An astoundingly good book, get it now.
