Starting this childhood favorite of mine for #ChildrensClassicRead2024
Our own #Litten @ahoffkosik has a podcast featuring Pippi!

“ 'Goodness, how it stormed!' Pippi would say. 'Even the fishes were seasick and wanted to go ashore. I saw a shark that was absolutely green in the face and an octopus that sat holding his head in all his many arms'“
🤣

pickI love Pippi Longstocking and wanted to be just like her. I still do! She‘s a rule-breaker, she‘s outrageous, she‘s fearless, she‘s self-sufficient and she has a kind and generous heart. This is the 2nd book in the series & just as much fun as the first. Only this time, we get to meet Pippi‘s almost as strong and equally outlandish seafaring Dad.
Thanks @TheBookHippie for bringing Pippi back into my reading life.😍📖

“ 'I'm making believe I'm a boat,' she said, plowing through the water. Just as she spoke she tumbled and went down under. 'Or, to be more exact, a submarine,' she continued calmly when she got her nose in the air again.“
Nice save Pippi, nice save... 😂

pickA timeless classic that never fails to bring a smile to my lips. Ahead of its time in some things, not so much in others (and this should definitely be updated), it's a simple story (or collection of stories) with remarkable characters. It's hard, if not downright impossible, not to be charmed and inspired by Pipi.

Rereading a childhood favorite. On the left was what my original copy of Pippi looked like. I wish it had survived childhood. On the right is the replacement copy I purchased in the late 90‘s.
