Title: Heidi at Boarding School
Author: Charles Tritten
Genre: Classic
Rating: 2/5
# pages: 152
Date read: January, 2019

Heidi was born and raised in the mountains, and when she comes to boarding school in Switzerland, it means a great upheaval in her life. But with her good mood and courage, she quickly wins over friends and learns to enjoy her life. Even better - she experiences a fantastic holiday with a schoolmate at home in her beloved mountains.


I hadn't realized that this sequel wasn't written by Johanna Spyri, and unfortunately Charles Tritten did not have the same way with words, making the story very disjointed and it jumped around in time, so the last few months took up 80% of the book, and the last 20% covered several years!

I didn't dislike it, but without the rosy glasses of childhood nostalgia, it could only just make it to "It was okay".
