Book Reviews of Heidi (Puffin Classics)
Book Review: A Very Special Book
Summary: 4 Stars
This was my mother's favorite book. She was often not well and was a voracious reader. As an only child, I, too, devoured books as fast as I could find them. My house then, as now, is a tribute to the written word. I was named after the book, so naturally I read it numerous times, dreaming that I was the heidi in the book, running through the alpine meadows...basking in the grouchy love of my grandfather..being one with the surroundings. It's such a sweet book..a book of love and hope and overcoming all odds for the ones you love. How can you not love it! I always fantasized about finding my own Peter to live happily ever after with...running through fields, well, you get the idea.... Alas, the only Peter I ever found was a long-haul trucker with deprived teeth, seven piercings (two in places I cannot attest to) and tattoos from head to toe who played Aerosmith and Waylon Jennings as loud as he could. My God! My prince has come!. Well, NOT!. Ah well. The search continues! By all means read the book to your children..or to yourself. It's worth the effort. It's nice to read books that leave you with a smile on your face.
