Astrid Lindgren

Pippi Longstocking has no parents around and no rules to follow. She's been treating her friends Tommy and Annika to wild adventures, too, like buying and eating seventy-two pounds of candy, or sailing off to an island in the middle of a lake to see what it's like to be shipwrecked. But then Pippi's long lost father returns, and she might have to leave Villa Villekulla.

Pippi and her friends, Tommy and Annika, attend the circus where Pippi walks the tightrope and wrestles with the "World's Strongest Man."
