A
Have you ever read the book Pippi Longstocking?It's
a fun story about a naughty(淘气的)girl named Pippi.
Swedish writer Astrid Lindgren wrote it.This year is the
book's 80th birthday!The book was on my reading list
when I was in primary school in Poland.It was quite a thick
book.But once I started,I couldn't put it down.
Pippi is an orphan ()She lives alone in a house
called Villa Villekulla.To me,she is a great example of
being strong and living life her own way.She doesn't
follow any rules,she doesn't go to school,and she lives
with a horse and a monkey.She cooks,cleans and manages her money.She is so
strong that she can even lift her own horse!
One day,Pippi's friends Tommy and Annika,ask her to try going to school for
a day.It doesn't go well.Pippi doesn't know how to do simple math problems,and
when it is time to draw,she makes a huge picture of her horse on the floor because a
piece of paper isn't big enough.
Even though Pippi is a bit crazy and very different,I still like how Tommy and
Annika accept her and want to join her on her adventures ()They show that
true friendship grows on respect and shared joy.The book is also a call to accept
your differences.For anyone feeling worried about being themselves,Pippi's world
reminds us that creativity and kindness make more than fitting in
