Pippi Longstocking by Astrid Lindgren
3.0

I probably would have loved Pippi Longstocking as a child, but as an adult I am less than enthusiastic about her. Lindgren did a great job of encapsulating everything children wish they could be in one small girl. She is strong, doesn't go to school, lives with a monkey and a horse, outsmarts adults, and mostly gets away with misbehaving.
