Книга Pippi Longstocking and the Snirkle Hunt

For very young readers, this is a new edition of one of Pippi's adventures, now with glorious two-colour illustration throughout. Do YOU know what a snirkle is? Pippi doesn't either - but she is going to find out!

Pippi Longstocking makes the everyday extraordinary, and spreads fun wherever she goes. In this new, highly-illustrated edition of one of her classic adventures, she invents a new word - and then becomes determined to find out what the word means. Join her and her friends Tommy and Annika as they set out to find a snirkle!

This first reader is based on a chapter from the title Pippi Longstocking in the South Seas.

I read this book to my son (aged just 5). He laughed so much that he fell off the bed!

Praise for Pippi Longstocking:

I don't know who is enjoying this book more - my six year old son or myself. Pippi is a feisty character with a touch of the superhero about her and is as appealing to me now as she was when I was a kid.

Praise for Pippi Longstocking:

Funny, charismatic Pippi is the person every small child wants to be . . . Magical Stuff.

Praise for Pippi Longstocking:

Pippi is in the great tradition of children's protagonists who subvert the adult world, whether by questioning it, like Alice, or simply throwing it into chaos, like Dr Seuss's Cat in the Hat.

Praise for Pippi Longstocking:

She's the greatest thing since sliced bread and twice as perky. For a fabulous romp through the increasingly ridiculous, I more than recommend this quirky spunky fan-freakin'-tastic book. It hasn't aged a jot.
