Product Description
From Amazon.com
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)
From AudioFile
Everyone's favorite irrepressible and independent girl leaps from the speakers as Esther Benson spares no effort to channel the fun and spunk of Pippi. It's refreshing to hear such an unjaded story in today's cynical world. Listen as Pippi takes on the establishment, burglars, and conventional villagers who can't grasp her fearlessness. Strangely, she is never chastised for being who she is. We need more of the Pippi spirit as portrayed here--free, heroic, and uncompromising. A must for all children, and some adults.
