Хорошая книга!

Но некоторые выходки Пеппи мне не понравились. И, вообще, [a:Astrid Lindgren|410653|Astrid Lindgren|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1194544214p2/410653.jpg] достаточно неоднозначная писательница и ей всё-таки лучше удаются лирические моменты, чем юмористические. Например, сцена отъезда Пеппи очень трогательная, до слёз!!! И сцена из первой книги, когда Пеппи спасает детей из горящего дома, тоже превосходна! А вот смешные моменты совсем не смешные и даже не милые! Да и приключений - кот наплакал.

"Pippi doesn't really lie. She just lies for fun. She makes up things. Don't you understand?"

Pippi is just as rude and obnoxious as I remember. Nonetheless, her stories remain kidlit classics. They're showing their age though.

The weakest of the three Pippi books, but still fun to read to the kids.

This is tough to rate: On the one hand I enjoyed how Pippi is more vulnerable and therefore a more believable character. The chapter in which she mourns a dead bird is so sweet. But this is also the installment where it turns out Pippi's naive fantasy of her father being a colonial king is actually true, and that is really truly cringy. I know I loved the Swedish Pippi Longstocking tv series as a kid and especially the more adventurous parts involving Efraim, but this material feels so out of place.
