Johanna Spyri had written the book, Heidi 'for children and those who
love children". It is a novel about the events in the life of a young
spirited girl called Heidi. She lives with her gruff grandfather in the
picturesque Swiss Alps. Heidi lives an idyllic life until she is
forcefully taken to Frankfurt by her aunt to be a companion to an
invalid girl. Will she be able to return home? What will become of the
invalid girl and her family? This story speaks about the joy of sharing
and helping those in need, the magnificent beauty of nature and the
importance of prayer. A charming story that has been an all-time
favourite.
