Ladybird Classics: Heidi

This beautiful hardback Ladybird Classic edition of Heidi by Johanna Spyri is a perfect first illustrated introduction to the classic story for younger readers.

It has been sensitively abridged and retold to make it suitable for sharing with young children from 5+, whilst retaining all the key parts of the story including Heidi's friendship with Peter, her life in Frankfurt with Clara, and fascinating details about life in the mountains.

Detailed full-colour illustrations throughout also help to bring this classic tale to life.

Other exciting titles in the Ladybird Classics series include Alice in Wonderland, Gulliver's Travels, The Secret Garden, Oliver Twist, Treasure Island, A Christmas Carol, Peter Pan, The Three Musketeers, The Jungle Book and The Wind in the Willows.

Reviews

Even the cat has wonderful facial expressions in this funny ... picture book... The story is told through the pictures ... Expression is everything in the story, and the characters really come alive.

—— Books for Keeps

Many small children will be faced with the death of someone they love and this charming picture story might help them to come to terms with it.

—— Northern Echo

Moving to the point where younger children may be upset, but explains death gently. 10/10.

—— Daily Mirror

It is an enjoyable tale and I think young children will like it and might gain some insight into grief and how to cope with it.

—— Bereavement Care

One of the best books i've read on death and loss.
