No other book but Pippi Longstocking has been as much fun to read out loud to my daughter. The prose is simple yet carefully chosen to roll off the tongue easily. A perfect bed-time story length, the tales captured my 7-yr-old's imagination so thoroughly that she now goes to bed with her nightgown inside out and asked to sprinkle dill weed in the corners. (Read the book, and you'll know what I mean.) As an adult, I enjoy the humor and appreciate the gentle lesson or two. Now, please excuse me--I have to go set a bowl of cream outside the back door...
your kids will check under the bed before they turn in.

my kids were entranced by these tales of those feisty spriggans and knackers. These are the wonderful stories to read to grandchildren , or have them read to you, about the really Olden Days when there was magic all over the world! The pictures are great. I wish we could have a spriggan on a T-shirt!
