Pippi Longstocking in the South Seas (World of Astrid Lindgren) Reviews

'If Pippi met Voldemort she'd make mincemeat out of him and then, because she's a generous, forgiving soul, sit him down and feed him ginger snaps.'
'Pippi Longstocking was my girl. I loved her strength - not just her physical power, but the idea that she wouldn't allow her voice to be diminished by anyone.'
