HEIDI (19) [HEIDI]

HEIDI (19)

Heidi felt much happier when she was with Grandmamma, but she was still very homesick.

As the day went by, she lost her appetite and grew thin and pale.

At night she lay awake, longing to be back in the mountains.

When she finally fell asleep, she dreamtof pine trees and fields of buttercups.
Each time she woke up and realised she was still in the big bed in Frankfurt, she would weep quietly, her face pressed into the pillow so that no one shuld hear.

Grandmama noticed how pale Heidi had become, but when she asked what was wrong, heidi would not tell her.

She didin't wantGrandmamma to think she was ungrateful.

One day grandmamma
told Heidi that if she had any troubles she should pray to God for his help.

So Heidi prayed every night, begging to be allowed to return to her grandfather.

Soon after, Clara's teacher was amazed to discover that Heidi could read.

That evening Grandmamma gave Heidi the beautiful picture book, just as she had promised.

Before she went to bed, Heidi read aloud to Grandmamma and Clara, and from then on her greatest pleasure was to read the stories, over and over again.
