Heidi Summary:
|
Summary:
A little Swiss orphan girl is heartbroken when she must leave her beloved grandfather and their happy home in the mountains. She has to go to school in the city, and care for an invalid girl. Heidi is a heartwarming tale, and lets the reader see the daily life of Alps as well as a the city through the eyes of a little girl. |
|
|
| On a clear sunny morning in June two figures might be seen climbing the narrow mountain path; one, a tall strong-looking girl, the other a child whom she was leading by the hand, and whose little checks were so aglow with heat that the crimson color could be seen even through the dark, sunburnt skin. |
|
|
| Johanna Spyri's classic tale of a young girl sent to live with her grumpy grandfather in the Swiss Alps |
|
|
| “Heidi” is a delightful story for children of life in the Alps, one of many tales written by the Swiss authoress, Johanna Spyri, who died in her home at Zurich in 1891. She had been well known to the younger readers of her own country since 1880, when she published her story, Heimathlos, which ran into three or more editions, and which, like her other books, as she states on the title page, was written for those who love children, as well as for the youngsters themselves. Her own sympathy with the instincts and longings of the child’s heart is shown in her picture of Heidi. The record of the early life of this Swiss child amid the beauties of her passionately loved mountain-home and during her exile in the great town has been for many years a favorite book of younger readers in Germany and America. |

|
| Written for juvenile readers, the story, set in the backdrop of Swiss Alps, has endured through time. The narrative represents the views of children and sees the world through their eyes. Little Heidi represents the wonders and power of faith that gradually change and revolutionize the world around her. A story that entertains and educates. |
