    Heidi brings me back to childhood. This classic work by Johanna Spyri captures the innocence and joy of being a child. The obvious moral lessons presented in the novel about trusting God's will and the message of forgiveness are both tangible themes that are fit for everyone, young and old. I had a joy re-reading this book!
