A copy that has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. When Heidi, a cheerful 5-year-old orphan, comes to live with her grandfathe r in the Swiss Alps, she brings a bright ray of sunshine into the lives of the people around her. Young Peter, a goatherd, shares her love of nature, and his blind grandmother delights in the little girl's bubbling personalit y. Even Heidi's surly and hermit-like grandfather, the old Alm-Uncle, finds his long-lost grandchild a source of immense pleasure. A few years later, when she is forced to go to Frankfurt to serve as a comp anion for Klara, a well-to-do but sickly girl, Heidi must leave her beloved mountains and friends behind -- an experience that proves highly traumatic to the innocent and sensitive little girl. But her return home and a visit from Klara result in magical moments that will leave young readers thoroug hly captivated by this heartwarming tale of an unforgettable child and her effect on the people around her. Complete and unabridged, this story "for children and those who love children" will thrill today's youngsters just as it has delighted generations of young readers and listeners since its original publication in 1881.
