ABOUT THE BOOK
When the Sesemann family and their friend Doctor Classen, who were so kind to Heidi during her stay in Frankfurt, visit her and her grandfather in the Swiss Alps, young Klara Sesemann, an invalid, decides to stay on for a while in the hope that the healthy mountain life and the care of Heidi's grandfather will do her good. But Heidi's devoted attention to Klara makes the goatherd Peter jealous, and in a fit of rage he does something meant to end Klara's stay on the mountain — setting off a chain of events with a happy, unhoped-for outcome.
Johanna Spyri's sequel to Heidi: Lessons at Home and Abroad is another cornerstone of children's literature, presented here in a new, unabridged translation by Peter James Bowman, illustrated by Susan Hellard. This edition includes extra material for young readers: a section on other classic stories of orphans, a glossary and a quiz.
