Heidi is the story of a young girl who lives with her grandfather in the Swiss Alps, fascinated by the enchanting beauty of nature. Heidi is by far the most popular work of Swiss literature and a part of the Swiss literary and social heritage itself. The novel has achieved great international fame, selling nearly 50 million copies worldwide. The region in which the novel takes place is now known as "Heidiland," and its capital is the large town of Maienfelde. Dörfli, Heidi's hometown, is now called "Heidi Village." The Heidi novel we have in our hands not only embodies the love of pure nature, but also calls for the love of others and the dedication to bringing them happiness, which inevitably leads to self-love. Heidi's generosity, her unmistakable generosity, and her love for helping others expressed the generosity and richness of Swiss nature.
