About the Author:
From School Library Journal:
Astrid Lindgren (1907–2002) was the creator of one of Sweden's most iconic fictional characters, Pippi Longstocking. The Pippi books have been translated into more than sixty languages. Ingrid Vang Nyman (1916–1959) was a noted Danish children's book illustrator, as well as the original illustrator of the Pippi chapter books.
Gr 1–4—Lindgren's popular protagonist comes to life once again in this compilation of her comics, published in English for the first time. The book is organized in chapters with titles detailing Pippi's adventures. The spunky heroine continues to have superhuman strength that allows her to lift airborne humans and horses alike. The vignette from which this collection derives its name is the most charming of the 12 strips and highlights the essence of Pippi, a girl who believes in everlasting childhood and play. Young readers will enjoy Vang Nyman's lively illustrations, which depict Pippi's rambunctiousness, loyalty, independence, and spunk. Even her hair that takes on a life of its own. VERDICT A volume that introduces Pippi Longstocking to young readers with the spirit and energy that she merits.—Lisa Gieskes, Richland County Public Library, Columbia, SC
