Customer Reviews

I agree

I agree that 'Heidi's Children' was very sweet. I did not read 'Heidi Grows Up' neither did I read 'Heidi's Children' as an adult, but I did read it as an 11 year old child and I loved it.

Heidi lives on!!!

It is true, Charles Tritten is not as talented as Joanna Spyri, but the Heidi sequels are still good! In this book, Heidi is expecting a child, but when Jamie, a childhood freind, asks if her little sister Marta could possibly stay with Heidi and Peter, as she is very unhappy at home, Heidi's motherly instincts take over, and in spite of the protests of Peter and Bridget, who think that Heidi should be resting, Marta comes. Surprising family secrets are revealed, including the identity of Heidi's mystery Grandmother, whom nobody knows other than Heidi's Grandfather... Compulsive reading, unmissable!!!

The most beautiful book around.

Everyone, I want you to know that the most beautiful books ever written are the three Heidi books, "Heidi", "Heidi grows up" and "Heidi's children". The last chapter in the book "Heidi grows up shows the wedding of Heidi to Peter. It also mentions Heidi's great freindship with Jamy, her schoolfreind, and how Jamy's younger sister had joined the group to be part of the werdding. In this book, "Heidi's children", Heidi and Peter take Jamy's sister, Marta , in, as her parents have no time fot her and there is no where else that she can go. The young girl becomes a help, although she does not realise it, and soon is Grandfathers great friend. In the book, Heidi and Peter have twins, Tobias (Tobi) and Marta (Martali). Marta also ghelps a lot with these two. It is a lovely story, very sad in parts such as the docotrs death, and the greandfathers death, but the book is otherwise sunny and beautiful. I advise anybody who can to order this book, it is worth the wait. And if you can geta copy of the second book, consider yourself vey fortunate!! Happy reading!!
