Rezensionen

"It never sacrifices heart for succinct storytelling...Spyri's novel of a young girl who is sent to live with her grandfather in the mountains is retold here with accompanying lush watercolors and wide, sweeping panoramas. Dusíková taps into the emotional core of this tale, making it accessible to all but the youngest readers." Kirkus Reviews
