However, Wollrad criticizes that references should be added to the content to help put racist terms in context and to provoke conversations. But what disturbed her is on some parts of the trilogy of books have a racist issue. For Wollrad, there are many positives sides from the book and Pippi is not racist. As for the example, in Pippi in the South Seas there a scene where the black children throw themselves into the sand in front of the white children. Eske Wollrad who is a feminist theologian scholar from Germany's Federal Association of Evangelical Women has asserted that Lindgren's classic children books have 'colonial racist stereotype'. According to the author’s daughter, she is not against the revision of the book as her mother also had nothing to against it.

As the national treasure of literature and the Swedish spirit, many of them were disappointed by people who said the book has a racial issue. Because of the racist word, it is now changed to “the King of South seas”. The controversy of the book was when Pippi said that her father was “the King of Negroes”. The final chapter is about Pippi’s 10th birthday party. Not only strong, but Pippi is also a genuine girl, she gives burglars pieces of gold to them with a condition that they have to dance with Pippi. And when she was at the circus, she can also beat the circus strongman. Pippi is told as the strongest girl in the world, and she manages the bullies by placing them into trees. The first chapter told about the free-lively Pippi and the other two children, Tommy and Annika. The book has each part of her adventures. Her mother died when she was a baby and her father was lost in the sea. Pippi is a girl with pigtails who lives by herself in an old house, Villa Villekulla.
