Note: The trilogy has been been called out for dated, colonialist, racist stereotyping of Indigenous peoples.
Her worst transgression is wolfing down the entire pie at a dignified coffee party. Pippi brandishes pistols and a sword in a couple of scenes, and fires the guns once (at the ceiling). Readers will need to check their disbelief at the door to Villa Vilkakulla and appreciate Pippi for the fun-loving thing-finder she is. She tells tall tales about her family and her own adventures as well. Pippi has superhuman strength, bad manners (gasp!), a good deal of weaponry, and piles of gold. She believes he landed on a South Seas island and rules it as "the Cannibal King." (Later editions changed this to "King of the Natives.") Young Pippi - along with her pet monkey and horse - lives in a ramshackle house, where she likes to make treats for her friends. Pippi is without parents: Her mother is dead, and her father disappeared at sea. Lindgren also wrote two sequels to this original book and broke parts out into storybooks for younger readers. Parents need to know that Swedish author Astrid Lindgren's novel Pippi Longstocking (first published in Sweden in 1945), has been a middle-grade favorite for generations.
