“Pippi Longstocking is nine years old.  She lives in Villa Villekulla with a horse, a monkey, and a big suitcase full of gold coins.  She spends her days arranging adventures to enjoy with her neighbours, Tommy and Annika, or entertaining everyone she meets with her outrageous stories.  Pippi thinks nothing of wrestling a circus strongman, dancing a polka with burglars, or tugging a bull’s tail!.”
