Welcome to Stories Come to Life. I am your host, Kathryn Lopez Luker. 

Here are the first two chapters of the enchanting story of Heidi, the little Swiss girl who is taken to live with her grandfather in a tiny cottage in the Alps. In these chapters you will hear how Heidi is taken up to Meadow Nuncle’s house by her Auntie Dete—and left there with him! She meets Goat Peter, makes a bed of sweet-smelling hay, and becomes acquainted with the two goats that will soon become such a big part of her life. 

I remember reading an old blue-bound copy of this story when I was a little girl. Certainly, this book was one of the reasons I learned to love mountains and high Alpine meadows. Even now, I still find myself wishing for a fresh bowl of bread and goat’s milk. I hope you enjoy getting to know Heidi over the next few weeks!

 Now sit back, relax, and listen to this story come to life.

Listening to audiobooks really does count as reading, and there's no better way to relax than to hear Stories Come to Life!
