Johanna Spyri's classic story of a young orphan sent to live with her
grumpy grandfather in the Swiss Alps is retold in it's entirety in
this beautifully bound hardcover edition. Heidi has charmed and
intrigued readers since it's original publication in 1880. Much more
than a children's story, the narrative is also a lesson on the
precarious nature of freedom, a luxury too often taken for granted.
Heidi almost loses her liberty as she is ripped away from the
tranquility of the mountains to tend to a sick cousin in the city.
Happily, all's well that ends well, and the reader is left with only
warm, fuzzy thoughts. Spryi's story will never grow wearisome--and
this is a very appealing edition. --Naomi Gesinger
