This was a wonderful read!
My teacher chose this book for me to read in the sixth grade. At first, I was not looking forward to it at all. The title seemed odd and hinted that the book wouldn't have a good end.
Then, as I'd have to do a book report on this soon, I gave it chance.
Everything about this was interesting and I felt that it was relatable, but at the same time it wasn't.
Heidi not going to school was something I COULDN'T connect to, but her curiosity about her past most certainly was. I mean, who wouldn't want to know about their parents? Where they came from?
I loved the fact that Heidi had that lucky streak of hers, and that she had a caring person like Bernadette when they were in need. The two of them helped each other and Heidi's mother survive. That bond is entirely what made this story so beautiful.
