Pull ones head around

I can not understand the formation of this action that is told in this sentence.. I would be glad if somebody tells the action in another way.

" .... a lovely little girl of nine who shrieked "Daddy!" and flew up, struggling like a fish, into his arms. She pulled his head around by one ear and set her cheek against his. "

Thank you in advance Emotion: smile
