She touches the lives of the people around her so completely they can’t bear it when she isn’t there. Simply put, Heidi is a comfort read.įirst of all, this is a book about a girl who is so loved that darkness falls whenever she leaves the room. Written in 1880, Heidi is not only blindingly optimistic but it’s also religious, and I don’t typically enjoy books that focus on religion. But what I loved about Heidi as a child, I loved all over again as an adult. I preferred flawed or “prickly” characters (think Mary Poppins, Ramona, and Harriet the Spy) and I loved stories that scared me and those that had fantastic elements. I tended to love books that were grittier and darker. This is one of those classic books that I would highly recommend to anyone, 11 years and upwards it taught me about the power of friendship and the main character of Heidi is definitely my favourite: a jovial, radiant, chirpy girl who is always grateful and contented, no matter what her situation.You might not expect Heidi to be one of my childhood favorites, but it is. Instead of making Clara feel isolated, he makes her realise she can walk! Unfortunately, this plan backfires completely. Peter knows this, so he decides to get rid of the chair that way, he will be able to spend more time with Heidi. Clara's stranded in a wheelchair and cannot travel anywhere without it. Her other friend, Peter, who is Heidi's grandfather's shepherd, starts to become jealous. The part of the book I enjoyed most is when Heidi makes a new friend called Clara. Surprisingly, Heidi's grandfather turns out to be welcoming and loving and lets Heidi stay in his mountain home, which she adores.
There is no way she is going to turn down this job to look after Heidi she has to go.
Heidi had been previously living with her Aunt Dete, but now Dete has been appointed to a job in Frankfurt. The story is about an orphan girl, Heidi, who has been sent to live with a lonely, angry man at the top of a mountain in the Swiss Alps.
