Heidi



Unassuming in plot and style, "Heidi" may none the less lay claim to rank

as a world classic. In the first place, both background and characters ring

true. The air of the Alps is wafted to us in every page; the house among

the pines, the meadows, and the eagle poised above the naked rocks form

a picture that no one could willingly forget. And the people, from the

kindly towns-folk to the quaint and touching peasant types, are as real as

any representation of human nature need be. Every goat even, has its

personality. As for the little heroine, she is a blessing not only to everyone

in the story, but to everyone who reads it. The narrative merits of the book

are too apparent to call for comment.

Switzerland in 1829, came [6]of a literary family, and devoted all her

talent to the writing of books for and about children
