Book Reviews of Pippi in the South Seas
Book Review: Irresistible
Summary: 5 Stars
I truly loved the creativity and humor from the beginning to the end of Pippi in the South Seas by Astrid Lindgren. This story, about an irresistible girl with two red pony tails and lots of freckles, takes the reader on voyage to the exciting island of Kurrekurredutt. I especially liked Pippi's loyalty to her friends, her imagination, charm, and wit. This story of wonder teaches children and adults to always help others and keep imagining. Undoubtedly, the PACES PAideia Study Guide for this book helped me understand the story better. The Parent Questions and Homework Questions in the Study Guide gave my mother and me good ideas to talk about. The Journals made me write about Pippi in my own words. As an eleven year old, I found this book extremely entertaining.
Book Review: Pippi In the South Seas continues Pippi's funny adventures
Summary: 5 Stars
Pippi In the South Seas continues the funny adventures of Pippi Longstocking. Most of the action in this fun filled sequel takes place on the island Kurrekurredutt. One day Pippi found a note in a bottle which said not to worry that her father will return on his ship the Hoptoad to bring her back to the island. This was sad for Pippi's friends Tommy and Annika, so they went along. When they all got to the island, Pippi was made Cannibal Princess. The exciting things that happen to them on the island make it hard for them to leave, but they return home to a late Christmas celebration.Book Review: Pippi in the South Seas
Summary: 5 Stars
I give this book 5 stars because it is interesting, funny, and silly.
My favorite character was Pippi because she is silly and crazy. My favorite part was when Pippi and her friends were playing marbles in a cave. They were using pearls as their marbles. Two thieves came and tried to steal the pearls from the cave. Pippi thought they wanted to use them for marbles too so she told them to go to a store to get real marbles!
I would recommend this book to anyone who likes being silly.
Book Review: An exciting and neat book
Summary: 5 Stars
A wonderful book. Pippi Longstocking likes old people alot and she tries to cheer them up. Then she discovers a new word and does not know the meaning of the word. Later she goes to the island of Kurrekurredutt and missed Christmas so nobody got presents. When she got home she hid some things for Tommy and Annieka. So when they got home well... you will just have to read it for your self.Book Review: In the South Seas with Pippi
Summary: 4 Stars
Pippi in the South Seas is a book with excitement and adventures popping up in every chapter. Pippi is a girl with amazing strength, but not manners. Her friends Tommy and Annika, live next door to Pippi's house, Villa Villekula, where she lives alone. Her father is a king of a remote island, and her mother is dead. Pippi does not go to school; she doesn't even have a job! Pippi lives off of her piles of gold around her house. The main adventure in this book comes with a letter. The letter is from Pippi's father asking her to come to his island. Ofcourse, she says yes. Tommy and Annika are distraught at the thought of Pippi leaving for so long, maybe even forever! Pippi gets permission from their parents to let them go. Tommy and Annika are so happy they get to go to the island with Pippi. When they get to the island they have tremendous amounts of fun, but also they have to fight burglars and sharks. Tommy, Pippi, and Annika are having lots of fun, but they are missing their home. Will Pippi and her friends ever return, or will they stay on the island forever? Read the book and use the Paces study guide to understand it. When I read this book I found this guide very helpful with its vocabulary, discussion, homework, and journals. The journals make you think about the events and understand them better. All in all, I think that this and the study guide is a very smart choice for a gift or just for yourself. Be prepared for adventures when you read Pippi in the South Seas.
