Tommy and Annika are on their way home from school and, as usual, they walk past Villa Villekulla. As usual, they say “I wish someone would move in there, someone with children”. Then, they suddenly see someone moving in the house – a cute little monkey! And there is a spotted horse on the porch, and inside the house, someone is sleeping with her feet on the pillow. From that day, nothing is the same for Tommy and Annika.

Pippi is good at lots of things, such as finding useful things, but there are other things that she isn’t as good at, like going for coffee on her best behaviour.

Pippi has made three nice kites, and she takes Tommy and Annika on a kite outing. Tommy and Annika have never been on such a fun outing.

It’s Christmas and Miss Prysselius cannot bear the thought of Pippi spending Christmas alone. So at the Christmas market, she sets the policemen, Kling and Klang, on Pippi to take her to the orphanage. But it isn’t easy to catch Pippi.

Did anyone know that Pippi’s father was also once a balloonist? That’s why his old hot air balloon is still in Pippi’s attic. Pippi goes on an unusual balloon trip with Tommy and Annika.
