I thought it was really funny and that I was amazed about what she had done.
Crazy and adventurous. Send kids of all laughing out loud and embark on exiting stories of pippi and friends!
In my opinion it is a very funny book and it made me feel very relaxed when reading it. I loved the book because it makes you dream of the impossible. I also liked it because Pippi is an orphan and it makes you think of all the things you can do without parents.
Pippi Longstocking is a very resilient and responsible child, she is also very strong and independent and kind. I love all these traits about her.
I want to be as strong as Pippi
Very funny book
I like Pippi Longstocking because she is a very funny girl and she has a monkey Mr Nelson.
I love this book! It was really fun to read! I love the illustrations and I think Mr Nelson is really funny!!!
I liked it, but it was very weird at bits! But it was still a very good book.
It is fiction.I think that Pippi was the best. It was interesting because it was funny.I would recommend this to someone else.
It was so funny Pippi is a very remembrable character
Pippi was my favourite character. It was a very interesting and funny book. I would recommend this book to others.
It is a very funny book!
The best bit was when she played jokes on the police
This book was amazing because it shows how bold girls can be and that girls can stick up to people and don't always have to be shy.
Very good. Very funny. I think it should be recommended to more people.
It was good but it could be better.
I love this book. I used to read it as a child and over the break I have it to my siblings and they also loved it! It’s a great recount of a child’s life and the adventures you may have.
I thought this book was amazing. It was about a strange girl which had no parents. I would recommend this book to everyone.
I particularly liked the circus chapter, when she stood on one leg on the tightrope without falling off, and when Senorita Carmencita was cross Pippi was on her horse.
I really enjoyed this book and all the different characters.. I liked Mr. Nielson who was a monkey and the horse.
I liked the bit in the story where it was Pippi birthday and they all got presents!
I liked the adventures that Pippi, Annika and Tommy went on..
The book was funny...
I liked that Pippi thought there was ghosts in the artic, but could they really of been owls???
The book was interesting and I felt tempted to read on until I finished.
I loved this book because it send out a really important message which is its is okay to be different.
My favourite character was Pippi as she was so wonderfully weird
i love her longstocking
I am still reading the book Pippi but I still really like it.
Lots of little stories inside a beautifully illustrated book of a feisty, independent and quirky character.
I read this as an eight year old and I enjoyed it again as a 40.... year old!
I thought it was ok and it made me think about daring girls.
My favourite character was pippi because she always stands up for people.
If you like not very big adventures I would recommend it to you
I love Pippi Longstocking because she is very funny and she does strange things but she thinks they are normal. She really made me laugh in chapter seven 7 called Pippi goes to the circus. I would recommend this book. It is so funny it gave me hiccups. My favourite character is Pippi The book is fiction.
Pippi is different from most people and does things the other way around. The funniest part is where Pippi, in chapter 9, eats everything... All the cakes!! I would recommend it!
This book is so old but I LOVE IT! When I was a toddler I watched the tv show all the time and I never knew there was even a book! So now I’ve read it I am even more in love with it than ever. I am a redhead like pippi and so I dressed up as her for world book day!
I absolutely love this so I rate it 5/5
Pippi can walk on wire with one foot
