Pippi to the Rescue — Astrid Lindgren

The tallest building in town is on fire—and two little boys are trapped at the top! The crowd in the square gasps in horror when they realize that the fire engine's ladder is too short to reach the frightened boys. As the fire blazes on, Pippi comes up with an ingenious plan and with the help of her monkey, Mr. Nilsson, she rescues the boys and brings them to safety. The Pippi Longstocking storybooks, excerpted from the original Pippi Longstocking books with Astrid Lindgren's assistance, are perfect for young readers and listeners just getting ready to enter the amazing, crazy world of Pippi and her friends.
