Heidi A day on the ALM (8)

Heidi   A day on the ALM (8)

" Oh, no ! " replied Peter emphatically.
" Even the goats can't climb so high and the uncle said you were not to climb the rocks. "

Suddenly Peter started to whistle and call loudly.

Heidi could not think what this meant, but the goats apparently understood, for, one after another, they came springing down until they were all gathered together on the green slope.

Some continued to nibble and others ran about, playfully pushing each other with their hones.

Heidi jumped up and ran amongst them.

While she played with the goats Peter fetched the rucksack and laid out the four pieces of bread on the ground, the big one on Heidi's side and the small ones on his own.

Then he took the little bowl, drew some milk into it from Little Swan and placed it in the centre.

" Stop skipping now ! It is time to eat, " he said.

Heidi sat down.
" Is the milk for me ? " she asked.
