Pippi Longstocking by Astrid Lindgren

Pippi Longstocking is a nine year old girl, and she lives all alone in her house, Villa Villekulla. She and her neighbors Tommy and Annika, have lots of adventures, such as playing-follow-the leader, only that includes climbing on the roof!
Pippi is the strongest person in the world. She could lift her horse off of her porch if she wanted.
Pippi has bright red hair, that was braided so tightly that they stuck straight out, and she had lots and lots of freckles. She wears a dress that she made herself. It is blue with a yellow flower near the top, and has patches of red all over it. She wears un-matching stockings, and too-big-shoes.
She has a monkey called Mr.Nilsson. Pippi sometimes walks down the street backwards. Pippi also sleeps with her feet on her pillow, and sings her self to sleep.
