Heidi

Breathe in the fresh mountain air of the Swiss Alps in this beloved story of healing, friendship, and the joy of nature. When a young orphan is sent to live with her reclusive, grumpy grandfather high up on the mountain, the villagers predict disaster. Instead, her boundless optimism and kind heart work a miracle, melting the old man’s frozen heart and bringing light to everyone she meets—from the simple goatherd Peter to the sickly Clara in the city.

Now, you can cast the starring roles in this Alpine adventure. Imagine your own child, grandchild, or niece as the spirited girl who runs barefoot through the wildflowers and befriends the goats. You can even cast a real-life grandfather in the role of the Alm-Uncle, creating a touching tribute to that special bond between generations. It turns a classic story into a personalized family treasure.

This book is the ultimate “feel-good” gift. It celebrates the idea that love and fresh air can cure almost anything. Whether you are creating a version for a little girl who loves animals or a grandparent who loves their grandkids, seeing familiar names in this timeless setting makes the famous ending—where the invalid friend learns to walk again—even more emotional and triumphant.
