Heidi

De: Johanna Spyri

Narrado por: Christina Porter

Heidi is Johanna Spyri’s timeless story of love, friendship, and the healing power of nature, set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Swiss Alps.

Orphaned at a young age, spirited and kindhearted Heidi is sent to live with her reclusive grandfather high in the mountains. At first gruff and distant, the old man gradually opens his heart to the lively little girl. Heidi’s days are filled with sunshine, goats in green pastures, and the joy of alpine life—until she is taken to the bustling city of Frankfurt to be a companion to Clara, a gentle but sickly girl confined to a wheelchair.

Homesick and longing for the mountains, Heidi never forgets the warmth of her grandfather’s hut and the clear mountain air. When she finally returns, her love for the Alps changes more than just her own life—it transforms the lives of everyone around her, including Clara, who finds new strength and freedom in the fresh mountain world.

First published in 1881, Heidi has enchanted generations with its unforgettable characters, uplifting spirit, and celebration of the simple joys of life. This beautifully formatted edition preserves the charm of the original while presenting it in a clear, modern layout for today’s listeners.
