Just to be ornery, I’m choosing something at the total opposite end of the spectrum from Swank. My early childhood was dominated by “Baby-Sitters Club,” “Sweet Valley” and “Pippi Longstocking.” Of those, only one has had a movie adaptation worth considering. Honestly, I haven’t seen this probably since I was in third grade so I don’t remember it at all other than it was Pippi come to life and there was a monkey. Formative.
OMG I didn’t even know there was an American adaption of Pippi! I feel a bit weird now.
