Yes
Diverse cast of characters:
No
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Complicated
This is a fun romp, but not without its difficulties in the modern day. I forgot how much of the story line revolved around colonialism happening in the background (Pippi's father got washed overboard and essentially took over an island to be a "cannibal king," which is a story told in the original volume, but in this volume, the story becomes more entrenched & verified by adults in an unsettling way).
