Pippi Longstocking by Astrid Lindgren

Fantasy
My is called Pippi Longstocking. It is about a 9 year old freckled faced, red head girl named Pippi Longstocking. She moves into the mysterious house of Villa Villa Cula with her pet monkey Mr. Nelson who wears a straw hat and sleeps in a baby's cradle. She also a horse named Alfonso that can talk a little and walks in and out of his house any time he pleases. Pippi also has no parents to take care of her and no rules to follow. Right next door to her live two kids who are not crazy and always follow their parents' rules until pippi comes. My favorite part is when Pippi goes to the circus and destroys the whole show. Find out what all the things pippi gets into in the book. I think you will like this book if you like a really awesome, crazy book.
