Publisher's Synopsis

Heidi is a classic novel written by Johanna Spyri. The story follows a young girl named Heidi who is sent to live with her grandfather in the Swiss Alps. At first, her grandfather is reluctant to take her in, but they soon form a close bond. Heidi loves her new home in the mountains and spends her days exploring the beautiful landscape and making new friends. However, her happiness is threatened when her aunt comes to take her away to Frankfurt to be a companion to a sickly girl named Clara. Heidi misses her grandfather and the mountains terribly, but she soon becomes friends with Clara and helps her to regain her health. Eventually, Heidi is reunited with her grandfather and returns to her beloved home in the Alps. The book is a heartwarming tale of love, friendship, and the beauty of nature.She looked around her in astonishment and could not imagine for a while where she was. But her grandfather's deep voice was now heard outside, and then Heidi began to recall all that had happened: how she had come away from her former home and was now on the mountain with her grandfather instead of with old Ursula.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
