Pippi Longstocking and the Snirkle Hunt

Astrid Lindgren, Ingrid Nyman

From Shelf: The world of Pippi Longstocking

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.
