Heidi learns that though the people in the city have more money, the people in the country lead richer lives. This classic Swiss children''s book by Johanna Spyri was published in two parts in 1880 and 1881. This unabridged version comes from a 1915 edition, translated from the original German by Elisabeth P. Stork and illustrated by Maria L. Kirk.
