About this listen

High in the Swiss Alps, Heidi, a five-year-old orphan, comes to live with her grandfather. His neighbors say he is a fierce old hermit, of whom they are all afraid. Heidi, however, proves to be a remarkable, unaffected child, who quickly charms her grandfather. In fact, for Heidi, nothing could be better than living with him. She enjoys a genuine enthusiasm for life: for the goats, which she helps Peter to tend; for the spring flowers on the Alm; for the thick slices of bread and cheese that her grandfather prepares for her; and for the simple hay bed that she occupies in the loft of his hut.

However, her Aunt Dete doesn't understand, and it is a sad day when she takes Heidi to live in a strange city with a strange family who wants a companion for their young invalid daughter named Klara. Heidi does her best to be a friend to Klara, but her longing for home becomes too much to bear.

A MUST-HAVE!!

Johanna Ward is an EXCELLENT narrator! This is a perfect audiobook to listen to when you need a break from the lengthier heavy plotted novels (and I've listened to all sorts!).

Loved this sentimental favorite

When I was little, my grandmother took care of me while my mother worked. She loved to read and she frequently read to me. Heidi was one of the books she read to me. Because I had a close relationship with my grandparents, the book was a particular favorite of mine. This well-performed audio version of Heidi took me back to those safe times when Grandma would read to me as I was cozily tucked in for an afternoon nap.

So Simple. So Lovely.

I remember the Shirley Temple movie from oh so many years ago. The book is moving and made me misty eyed more than once.

My kid approves. Heidi unexpectedly became his favorite book to date.

From my 7-year-old CM homeschooled son:

“I give it one million starts. It was the best book I’ve listened to in all the free reads. I liked the way Heidi was always caring for somebody else and how kind the grandmother was to tell Peter and other people about the Lord our Christ. I wished the story would never end.”

Loved it!

Sweet memories from long ago.
I didn't miss 1 episode of the series when I was a little girl.
The story and narration did not disappoint.
Such a lovely, peaceful book to listen too.
