Summary: "Was die Großmutter gelehrt hat" by Johanna Spyri is a children's narrative written during the late 19th century. This heartwarming story focuses on the bond between a grandmother and her beloved granddaughter, Trini, highlighting themes of love, sacrifice, and the inevitable challenges of growing up. Set against the backdrop of the Swiss countryside, the book explores the struggles of a family in a simpler time, as they navigate financial difficulties and personal growth. The story begins with the elderly grandmother, Käthe, reflecting on her life while caring for her granddaughter, Trini. As Trini approaches the age to leave school and begin working, a relative suggests sending her away to work at a local factory for better financial prospects.

The narrative unfolds with Trini's adventures in berry picking alongside her friends, her encounters with the local farmer, and her commitment to helping the needy, particularly a poor classmate, Maneli.
