An all time classic, Heidi is as popular today as it was when first published towards the end of the nineteenth century. Heidi is a heart-warming story of a little orphan girl who is sent away to live with her grandfather in the Alps. She falls in love with the mountains and through her simplicity and goodness, she is able to change the lives and attitudes of everyone she comes in contact with; including her solemn, no-nonsense grandfather, Peter, the goatherd and his blind grandmother. Heidi is uprooted once again when she is sent away to live with a rich family in the city. She is unhappy in the constricted atmosphere of the city and yearns to return to her beloved mountains. Regardless, her spirit shines through all her travails and touches the lives of all those around her. She finds happiness in the end when she is allowed to return to her grandfather.
