In 2025, we celebrate that the world’s strongest girl, Pippi Longstocking, is turning 80 years.
Target audience Young as well as adult literature enthusiasts.

How to use Children's literature You can use the different parts of this toolkit individually or combine the Pippi party kit with Little library and Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award (ALMA). The toolkit material can be used by Swedish foreign missions only.
Please note that Pippi is a registered trademark exclusively owned by Astrid Lindgren AB and may not be used without permission from them, unless included in this toolkit. The material may not be altered in any way.
In 2025, our beloved superhero, Pippi Longstocking, turns 80. During the anniversary year, Swedish foreign missions can use the Pippi 80 celebration material to create events that inspire everyone to be more like Pippi.
The Pippi 80 party kit includes fun games, decorations, and materials to arrange a celebration for children and families. The Pippi 80 cutout board offers a playful photo opportunity, while the exhibition posters showcase Pippi’s story and values. Ready-made social media posts make it easy to share the celebration online. To make the party even more special, additional Pippi products can be ordered to bring Pippi’s world to life.
It is more important than ever to face the world as Pippi does – with strength and courage enough to break norms and stand on the side of the weak against bullies and abusers of power. Pippi shows us that we always have the choice to help each other and make the world a little better, a little more just.
Little library Download Little library manual (PDF 2 MB) Little library manual Download text for translation (PDF 95 KB) Library categories text for translation Little library gives you a place to promote Swedish children’s literature and create a dialogue about children’s rights. It is a small library and a playful space for children that can serve as a window for your Sweden promotion. The library is of adjustable size and can stay in one venue for a long time, because visitors can enjoy coming more than once.
