Why read on Fable?
Publisher Description
When Heidi’s parents die and she can no longer live with her aunt, she must stay with her ill-tempered grandfather who lives alone in the Swiss Alps. The townspeople worry that such a young girl has been left with a bad-tempered hermit. But Heidi thrives in the mountains and loves living with her grandfather. She is happiest playing with the mountain goats, picking wildflowers, and making friends. Then Heidi is taken away to serve as a companion to a lonely woman. Will she ever get back to the people and the mountains she loves so much?

“When I was reading Heidi, I was in a bad place in life so this review might be biased.
It’s comforting and adorable. Its wholesomeness gave me a sense of peace. A story about love, care and nature. There’s nothing much to it as some people would like but it could definitely be my go-to book.”
