5.0 out of 5 stars A very funny book !, 24 Oct 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Pippi Longstocking (Oxford Children's Modern Classics) (Paperback)
I read this book to be son (aged just 5) . He laughed so much that he fell off the bed! We finished the book in 3 evenings and then had to go straight back to the beginning and start again. Pippi lives on her own with no adult to impose bedtimes (or even to tell her which way up she should sleep in the bed) - surely every child has dreamed of having this freedom. My son loved the resulting element of anarchy in the book. Although various adults in the book do attempt to exert authority over Pippi she always outwits them. A child's fantasy world will be enriched and fortified by this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Pippi Longstocking, 19 Feb 2003
This review is from: Pippi Longstocking (Paperback)
... It is about a girl called Pippi Longstocking. Her dad is the king of a cannibal island Pippi has never been to school and is a bit stupid Pippi is also the strongest girl in the world.

There are other characters called Tommy and Annika. They are Pippi`s friends. Pippi has a horse and a pet monkey called Mr Nelsion.

I enjoyed this book because it is very long and it is about a girl who goes on lots of different adventures.

What I did not like about this book was that some adventures were the same and a bit boring I would give this book 8/10.

3.0 out of 5 stars Pippi Longstocking, 18 Jan 2003
This review is from: Pippi Longstocking (Paperback)
Pippi is an incredible character and has a rather strange way of thinking.
Astrid Lingren has obviously thought of someone she knows, changed her name, and made her more peculiar than anyone else imaginable. She has done things differently from what I expected e.g. the two children who Pippi makes friends with aren't really puzzled by how odd she is.
My favourite bit in the book is when Tommy, Anika (Pippi's friends) and Pippi herself, go Turnupstuffing and her friends are amzingly lucky and find a necklace and a notepad, while Pippi finds a cotton reel and a rusty old ake tin! It made me laugh when she was so pleased with them!
You have to read it!
