“I remember watching the japanese animated version of Heidi when I was a kid (1996) but I really dont remember a lot about the story, just the main fact that she really love living in the mountain with her grandpa. And I suddenly feel like I really want to know what happened in the book. So this is really a happy read for me..”natalie rose <3
