Blurb reads:Heidi, is without doubt, one of the sweetest children's stories ever written. Every reader will love the kind-hearted little girl who lives with her rather growly old grandfather high among the mountains of Switzerland. She has a smile for everyone she meets.Suddenly Heidi is obliged to leave the mountainous country she loves so much to go to Frankfort. There she lives in the great house owned by Mr Seseman. Naturally she is very unhappy but surprising things happen and many people are made happier because of her. There are many exciting incidents and, in the end, happiness comes to Heidi once again.Johanna Spyri writes about children as they should be - pure and gay. No wonder this book has become as famous as those written many, many years before.
