QUESTIONS EXPLORED:

  • What does it look like to say yes to life’s surprises?
  • How might we find play in the day-to-day?

 

WHAT I LOVE:

Pippi in the South Seas is a vibrant book, and an excellent example of what it might look life to live a life filled with “yes, and …” thinking. When I find myself in need of a reminder to lighten up and be a little more adventurous, I tap into my inner Pippi Longstocking and dive exuberantly into my day.

PUBLISHER DESCRIPTION:

When Pippi’s father, the king, sends for her, she decides to take her best friends Tommy and Annika with her to Kurrekurredutt Island. The island is fantastic and Pippi has one crazy adventure after another! Pippi is even made a princess—Princess Pippilotta. But will Pippi and her friends really want to live on the island forever, never to return to Villa Villekulla?
