One of pop culture's original not-so-bad bad kids, Pippi proves a great role model for girls and boys in many ways, and is far enough removed from real-life that her bad behavior, which is generally no worse than a refusal to bend to nonsensical societal mores, can be enjoyed as a sort of remove: Pippi gets to do those things because she's special, she's Pippi. -- School Library Journal These are fun, colorful comics that are perfect for elementary school-age readers. -- Comic Book Resources

Relying on bold blocks of color and bright, simple designs, the panels are midcentury children's art at its finest. -- The Paris Review Delightful simplicity, bold colors and design, and quirky narratives with quietly profound themes. -- School Library Journal
