Soon, however, Heidi is wrenched from this idyllic life and plunged into a job in the city and difficult challenges.áHeidi,álikeáAnne of Green Gables, is an unforgettable childrenâÇÖs classic, and one of the very few from Switzerland.áHeidiáhas delighted generations of children and those who read to them.áThis lavishly illustrated edition contains twenty-one large original colour illustrations as well as many smaller ones and delightful monochrome drawings.áThe translation, in clear pure English, designed to be read aloud, captures Johanna SpyriâÇÖs delight in mountain scenes, the ways of children, and the pure air of the Alps.áFeatures of this edition:·áááááááááWell-spaced generous 11-point font that will be a pleasure for children and adults to read.·ááááááááá66 original illustrations, including 21 large colour illustrations.
