Oooooh I remember Pippi’s book now! I had a different cover, but I wish I could re-read it. Perhaps one day?

I only vaguely remember reading (or maybe I watched a film version?) of Pippi. I’ll have to do a re-read someday soon.

Little Women was like that for me when I read it just a couple of years ago. I loved it as a kid.

I never did like Pippi. For some reason I read this to my 7yo earlier this year and remembered just how much I don’t like it (LOL) He thought it was ok.

I used to love Pippi. I was enamored with everything about her when I was growing up. I think that some things are better enjoyed as memories–at least for me.
