Pippi firar födelsedag

Pippi sure knows how to celebrate a birthday! With good humor and great generosity, she throws a party for her friends Tommy and Annika. Pippi arranges an invitation in her own way and the children come in their best going-out clothes. And they bring a birthday present: a handsome music box.They enter Villa Villekulla where it is unusually well-kept in honor of the day. Pippi has set the table nicely and made lots of exciting pastries. When Pippi receives her present, she thinks that she is not the only one who should have presents. Tommy and Annika get to open each small package, a nice little ivory flute and a beautiful butterfly brooch.What a party! It will be a lovely party with cakes and buns and lots of chocolate and whipped cream. And it gets crazy when everyone finally puts the chocolate cups upside down on their heads. After dinner, everyone wants to play no-touch-floor in Pippi's kitchen and then it's time for something spooky. Pippi takes her guests up to the attic to look for gas. And guess if she gets scared when she suddenly appears as a ghost! And there in the attic, Pippi suddenly finds her father's old sailor's chest. What a find! In the chest is an old nightgown, some pistols and a bag of gold coins.When Pippi waves off her guests after a successful birthday party, she shouts: I'm going to be a pirate when I grow up, she shouts. Are you going to?A playful, generous story with some completely new visual material has become a big, beautiful picture book with a gold cover, in honor of Pippi's 75th anniversary!
