Heidi
ByPublisher Description
Heidi is a book of children's fiction published in 1881 by Swiss writer Johanna Spyri. It was initially published in two sections Heidi: Her years of wandering and learning and Heidi: How She Used What She Learned. It is a book about the incidents of the life of a 5-year-old girl in her concerned grandfather's care in the Swiss Alps, which describes the story of a little orphan girl, Heidi, who has been sent to stay with a lonely, irritating man at the highest point of a mountain in the Swiss Alps. This man is her grandfather. Heidi had been previously living with her Auntie Dete, but now Dete has been selected for a job in Frankfurt. The story also has five series that show Heidi as a grown-up, a mother, and, afterward, a grandmother, despite the fact that they were written after Spyri's death and involve her writings as inspiration.

“I watched Heidi, the Japanese cartoon series, as a kid and the images are still vivid in my head. This is a very heartwarming book that gives you warmth and nostalgia especially if you are also close to your grandfather like I am, or was.
Indeed, through this story, children’s innocence and love are heartwarming and do bind people together. While the book is like a fresh air, I cried at the part when Aunt Deta fetched Heidi from her grandfather for Frankfurt—sad, but ever more so for grandfather since he had some new purpose when Heidi came.
There were other heartwarming parts and positivity this book brings, and it’s gleeful for someone to know that there’s a book like Heidi that feels like family and home.”theacefangirl

“I'm probably rating it this high cause of prue nostalgia since it was the first book I remember reading”
