I've always liked here books :)
I love Astrid and her unique books! Nothing can beat them! I still read those books for my kids although the´re already so big. Maybe I read them also for myself, like stepping back to my childhood.
Pippi Longstocking is such fun! I always admired her spunk and sense of fun. And who can resist that whacky red hair? Yay for Astrid Lindgren for creating such a lovable character.
Cattitude and Gratitude
What a lovely photo of the author. So much character in that face. I just had to pop over, as I love Pippi Longstocking and always enjoyed reading the stories to Eleanor. No doubt I will also be reading them to Ruby when she's a bit older!
@Eva - me too, and also enjoyed the series
@Talya - good!
@Sofia - somehow you never get too old to read them
@Lucy - so true
@Writercat - and what do you say about the horse? :)
@Adam - it is true, right?
@Diane - I am sure she will enjoy them
@Ruth - she is part of so manh childhoods
So true! Much joy is received from reading! My mom was a children's librarian so we were blessed with great books!
Sweden is our Memphis in May honored country, so we should be seeing a lot of Pippi. Great choice!
