When I learned my husband had never read Pippi Longstocking, we decided to listen to the audio version. Pippi is just as delightful and mischievous as I remember from when I first read her stories as a child and when I re-read the original three novels in 2017. I love that her antics bring a smile to my face and guarantee a few laugh out loud moments. She is a treasure!
