My friend Lauren let me borrow this great book.
It's about a orphan girl named Heidi who lives with her Grandfather in the mountains. But then one day Heidi's Aunt Detie comes to take Heidi to live in a mansion with a very rich family away in the city. Heidi becomes friends with Clara, a girl in a wheel chair. She is happy playing and reading with Clara, but she also misses her Grandfather, the mountains, her friend Peter, and Peter's Grannie and mother. Heidi is very homesick, and starts sleepwalking and crying herself to sleep at night. The doctor realizes this, and says that Heidi must go back to Grandfather in the mountains for her health.
Heidi is overjoyed to go home. But she misses Clara too, and Clara misses Heidi. So Clara's father decides to let Clara go to the mountains to visit. The fresh air, fresh goat milk, nature, and beauty of the mountains make Clara healthier. She even learns to walk! Yes, this is a great book that you should definitely read!!!
