High in the breathtaking Swiss Alps, a young orphan named Heidi is sent to live with her embittered, solitary grandfather. While the villagers fear the "Alm-Uncle," Heidi’s spirited nature and pure heart transform his world and the lives of everyone she meets—from the lonely Peter the goat-herd to the frail, city-bound Clara in Frankfurt.
Johanna Spyri’s masterpiece is a luminous celebration of the natural world and the resilience of the human spirit. A story that explores the ache of homesickness and the joy of finding where you truly belong, Heidi remains one of the most beloved tales of innocence and the restorative power of kindness.
