Description:Heidi was first written in 1880 by Swiss author Johanna Spyri.I read Heidi when I was a child and it quickly became one of my most favourite books. I tried to get my nieces to read it but they found it "boring and too hard to understand". I didn't want them to lose out on the wonderfulness of the story, so I decided to rewrite it for today's youngsters. The book is out of copyright, so I was able to take it and make it my own. I've tried to keep as close to the original tone as possible and the story is still the same. The original version was word-heavy and complicated in its structure and it's this that I've changed.There is an emphasis on God's word in the book, which I have retained as it's integral to the story.The book was originally written for 8-year-olds which I find amazing now - it's more suited to at least 12 and upwards - way upwards! Honestly, this old adult enjoyed it every bit as much as I did the first time round.I hope you love it as much as I do.Heidi is a 5-year-old orphan when she is brought to live on a Swiss mountain with her bad-tempered grandfather. However, the old man is not what he seems to be, and Heidi loves her new life where she's free to run among the goats and flowers with her new friend, Peter.Three years of happiness come to an end when her aunt arrives to take her to be a companion for a sick child in Frankfurt. Heidi's little heart is filled with homesickness and fear that she'll never see her beloved grandfather and the mountain again.Sometimes what we want is not what we need, and Heidi's prayers are answered in ways she never expected.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
