Description

Early German edition of Heidi: How She Used What She Had Learned by Johanna Spyri. The entire cover of the book is a red-orange color. At the top of the front cover is an illustration of a cabin nestled in front of a grove of evergreen trees. In the background are mountains resting against a sky with clouds. Wrapping around the illustration is another illustration of pink flowers with green stems and leaves spanning the height of the cover. On the spine is the author's name, the word "Geschichten" meaning "stories" in German, and the volume number. On the page of the first chapter is a black and white illustration of a field of flowers in front of a lake with the mountains in the background reflecting off of the water. On page 59 is a full page black and white illustration of Heidi reading a book to an old woman lying in a bed. Despite there being a chair next to her, Heidi is standing next to the bed to read. The woman in the bed has her hands folded across her lap and her eyes are closed like in Christian Prayer. On the first page of the seventh chapter is an illustration of the cabin again but this time there is a boy standing out front, herding goats. By the cabin, across from the road, is a mountain stream with a bridge overtop to cross. Further down the road is another cabin, next to the stream. In the background is a forest of evergreen trees climbing the mountains. On the first page of the eighth chapter is an illustration of a road with one side lined by evergreen trees and the other side lined by a wooden fence. Down the road is a man walking with a cane. In the background are more trees and mountains.
