Heidi (Award Classic Fairy Tale)

Step into a lovingly illustrated version of the timeless classic Heidi, retold in this large-format 1980 edition and adorned with evocative art by Rene Cloke. This special “Award Classic Fairy Tale” series edition follows Heidi’s heart-warming journey from her mountain home to the city, and back again — complete with the rich episodes often edited out of simpler versions: the deep friendships in the Alps, her stay with Clara and her grandmother in the village, Heidi’s schooling and efforts to teach Peter to read, Clara’s eventual ability to walk, and Heidi and Grandfather moving down to the village for a new chapter in their lives. A wonderful piece for fans of vintage illustrated children’s books, fairy tale collections, or classroom love-of-reading gifts
