A little about the story
Two stories by the author of Heidi. Rico is a lonely boy in the Engadine valley who dreams of a beautiful distant lake he remembers from his early childhood, and sets out to find it with his grandfather's old fiddle. Wiseli is an orphan girl who must find her place in a new home.
Johanna Spyri's stories are full of mountain scenery, quiet courage and kindness.
