"A rollicking story."--The Horn Book

Tommy and his sister Annika have a new neighbor, and her name is Pippi Longstocking. She has crazy red pigtails, no parents to tell her what to do, a horse that lives on her porch, and a flair for the outrageous that seems to lead to one adventure after another!

Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

Pippi is an irrepressible, irreverent, and irrefutably delightful girl who lives alone (with a monkey) in her wacky house, Villa Villekulla. When she's not dancing with the burglars who were just trying to rob her house, she's attempting to learn the "pluttification" tables at school; fighting Adolf, the strongest man in the world at the circus; or playing tag with police officers. Pippi's high-spirited, good-natured hijinks cause as much trouble as fun, but a more generous child you won't find anywhere.

Astrid Lindgren has created a unique and lovable character, inspiring generations of children to want to be Pippi. More than anything, Pippi makes reading a pleasure; no child will welcome the end of the book, and many will return to Pippi Longstocking again and again. Simply put, Pippi is irresistible. (Ages 9 to 12) --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Pippi: a heroine for our time!

ByCissaon April 9, 2016

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I adored Pippi as a kid! And this novel- more a set of short stories- is great.

Pippi is very anarchic, and demonstrates the capabilities of 9-year-olds, albeit in an exaggerated way. She is kind, stands up top both adult and child bullies, and requires everyone to treat her like herself, rather than an example of a class.

This is a heroine for both boys and girls- my husband also loved these stories as a kid.

Very recommended!

Loved this book as a little girl!

ByMelissa Mesaon March 8, 2017

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I loved this book as a little girl and I'm excited my daughter will be getting it in her Easter basket this year. I would have given this book 5 stars without a doubt, but the front cover of the book was torn. So that was disappointing, but a little tape will fix it.

Classic that stands the test of time

ByAusskezon January 1, 2016

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I just started reading Pippi to my 5 year old and she is HOOKED. Her first real chapter book and every night she's ready for me to read the very next chapter. She can't wait to learn to read "properly" so that she can enjoy the text for herself, in the meantime we're having loads of fun laying in bed together and chuckling over the antics of that mischievous redhead!

My 7-year-old daughter and I are reading this book together. She is enjoying the story laughing at Pippi's antics just like I did as a kid some 50 years ago. Yeah I'm an old dad lol

I loved it when I was little--including the crazy illustrations

ByJanice Siegfordon July 27, 2015

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I loved it when I was little--including the crazy illustrations. Now my daughter is starting to appreciate it too. It's a great book for her as she moves into longer chapter books too. (Seems like it's hard to find books that are chapter books but not so dense that a 6 year old loses interest.)

Every Family Should Have This Book

ByLeslieon March 19, 2015

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

My daughters love reading about Pippi and her unique view of the world. This is a great bedtime book as each chapter reads as a story all its own. My 6 year old loves Pippi so much that she dressed as her for "Dress as Your Favorite Character Day" at school.This book should be in every family's collection, especially if you have little girls like I do.

This book is the best. It's hilarious. It's got the perfect sense of humor for about ages 5-11 or so. Brilliant.
