This was the final book I read for guided reading during my student teaching. I had read other Pippi stories but never this one. I had heard about Pippi from my mother and I even had a collection of stories about her.
Pippi is a nine year old who is very unconventional, assertive and even has superhuman strength, being able to lift her house one-handed without difficulty. In this book she has many adventures with adults like police officers and burglars, she also goes on a picnic, tries out school and even to the circus. Pippi is a very unusual girl, but that doesn't stop her. She, like Peter Pan doesn't ever want to grow up.
This is an interesting read for sure and she is quite the little character.
