Book Review… Heidi

Today’s review will be over Heidi by Johanna Spyri my copy was adapted and condensed by Mary Caprio with illustrated by Jon Sayer. The story of Heidi is a very good children story that teach money doesn’t always bring happiness, and that sometimes there no place like home. Heidi is a very thoughtful child she thinks of other more than she does herself to the point it causes her to sleep walk because she miss her home so much. When she given money she spends it on another person so she be able to eat, and when she ask what she wants towards the end she ask for something for someone else.  Her grandfather also known as uncle seems to be a hard man that Heidi softens and gives him a reason to turn to god. Which is another theme of sort though out the book that good is always there for you to turn to no matter what you do and how long you turn your back on him he will always be there for you when you come “home”. Over all I give this Adaptation of Heidi 5 stars out of 5 it had me smiling and shaking my head at some of the crazy things going on and is perfect for a child since the god theme is tone down.
