Meet Pippi Longstocking, the unforgettable nine-year-old heroine who has captured the hearts of generations.
Living alone in Villa Villekulla with her pet horse, mischievous monkey, and a suitcase full of gold coins, Pippi is cheeky, courageous, and completely unpredictable. While the grown-ups in the village try to make her behave like an ordinary little girl, Pippi has other ideas—she’d rather spend her days creating wild adventures with her neighbours Tommy and Annika, or entertaining everyone she meets with her outrageous stories.
From wrestling a circus strongman to dancing a polka with burglars and tugging a bull's tail, Pippi's fearless spirit and sense of fun make every page sparkle with imagination.
First published in 1945, Astrid Lindgren's classic children's book has inspired millions of readers worldwide.
This beautifully illustrated edition features artwork by Lauren Child, the award-winning creator of Clarice Bean and Lola. Just as she was inspired by Pippi as a child, Lauren brings her own inimitable style to this timeless story, making it the perfect gift for today's young readers.
With its mix of humour, mischief, and adventure, Pippi Longstocking is ideal for children aged 6-9 who love classic chapter books, strong girl characters, and stories filled with imagination and fun.
