I read this book multiple times as a child, I loved it then. While rereading it I came across passages that were still vivid in my brain even decades later because of the imagery it conjured for me as a kid. So I still did enjoy it, but it is very obviously geared towards children. Which is fine, just harder for me to be interested in as an adult. It is also based on her life (so, autobiographical to an extent) and therefore doesn't have much of a plot which was the main issue I had upon rereading.
