Summary: "Heidi" by Johanna Spyri is a children's novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around a young Swiss girl named Heidi, who experiences a transformative journey of self-discovery and adventure in the beautiful Alps. The novel explores themes of family, belonging, and the healing power of nature, as Heidi navigates her relationships with her grandfather, Alm-Uncle, and the people from her past. The opening of the story introduces Heidi's arrival at her grandfather's mountain home, a significant turning point in her life. Accompanied by her cousin Dete, Heidi climbs to Alm-Uncle's hut, where Dete intends to leave her in his care due to her mother's passing.
