I would not recommend this book for children
I would not recommend this book for children. It has very strong negative suggestions about of people in different parts of the world. For instance, there is one chapter where Pippi appolizes for lying to her new friends then says it’s because she stayed in the Congo for too long where “there is not single person who tells the truth” (pg. 18). I was horrified as I read this with my 7 year old.
