The Long Climb
Loading image...
It is a bright June morning. You are little Heidi, climbing a narrow mountain path that winds up from the village to the high Alps. The sun is hot, but you are wearing two dresses, a thick shawl, and heavy mountain shoes because your Aunt Dete didn't want to carry your clothes.
Your Aunt Dete is walking fast, dragging you by the hand. You are hot, tired, and can barely lift your feet. You see Peter the goatherd climbing up a shortcut with his goats. He looks so cool and free in his light clothes!
