520 _a"Heidi" is the story of a cheerful and kind-hearted five-year-old orphan girl named Heidi, who is sent to live with her gruff but kind grandfather in a small cottage high in the Swiss Alps. Though initially thought to be cold and unfriendly, her grandfather gradually opens his heart to Heidi, and they form a deep bond. Heidi thrives in the mountains, enjoying the simple life, the beauty of nature, and the company of Peter, the goatherd. After a few happy years, Heidi is suddenly taken away by her aunt Dete to live in Frankfurt, Germany, as a companion for a wealthy but sickly girl named Clara Sesemann. While Heidi and Clara become close friends, Heidi misses the mountains terribly and becomes homesick and unwell. Eventually, with the help of a kind doctor, she is allowed to return to her grandfather. Later, Clara visits Heidi in the Alps, and the clean mountain air, good food, and Peter's help allow Clara to regain her strength and eventually walk again. The story ends on a joyful note, emphasizing the healing power of nature, love, and a simple, honest life.
