Heidi
by Johanna Spyri
A young orphan named Heidi is sent to live with her gruff, reclusive grandfather high in the Swiss Alps, where she blossoms amid the mountains, goats, and her friendship with the goatherd Peter. When she is later taken to Frankfurt to be a companion to the frail Klara Sesemann, her longing for the mountains and her simple faith work quiet wonders on everyone around her, culminating in a joyful reunion and a healing return to the Alp. Clear, warm prose makes this an inviting read for beginner and intermediate learners.
"Vom freundlichen Dorfe Maienfeld führt ein Fußweg durch grüne, baumreiche Fluren bis zum Fuße der Höhen, die von dieser Seite groß und ernst auf das Tal herniederschauen."
