I had heard of Pippi Longstocking but had never read the books or seen any movies until now. It is a children’s classic, translated from Swedish. It’s pretty odd. Pippi is 9 years old and lives alone. She has tons of money and has super strength. Each chapter is an episode, basically. It is far removed from reality and sometimes absurd. I’m still not sure if I like it or not.
