I have always loved classic children's literature and have read much of it. This particular book is one of my favorites and I think it is equally good when you it as an adult or as a child. The characters are engaging and realistic and the story draws you in.

Heidi is written in a freely flowing, imaginative and well-paced style. The author has successfully portrayed a child’s character as unaffected and simple, yet kind and empathetic. The character building is effective and true to real life. Even though it is a children’s fiction, it can easily and competently be read by people of all ages with immense enjoyment. It stays snug within its genre yet manages to push the boundaries and become something more. This is the reason why it has become the symbol of Swiss folklore around the world and stayed alive for 138+ years.

A perfectly lovely story, though a bit sparse at times. Definitely one that is more for children, rather than a family read.
A short and cute story for a cosy time.
I found the style very appealing and beautiful, even though sometimes it felt like a bit too much. It was also quite interesting the importance of the religion in the book, something that I was not really expecting at all, and it almost felt that the author was trying to sell it to the reader.
In general it was alright, very cosy and beautiful.
