First-time listeners, as well as those who once treasured this story, will be thrilled by Sutton Foster’s character portrayals. AudioFile’s Michele Cobb and host Jo Reed discuss how Foster’s portrayal of Pippi is central to the audiobook’s success. Her narration crackles with dynamic vibrancy when it comes to Pippi’s dialogue. She depicts the wonder, confusion, and doubt of Pippi’s friends and the consternation of adults whose authority Pippi challenges. But, as it should be, nothing and no one compares to the power and brash audacity of Pippi.
