Description

Johanna Spyri, famed for Heidi, wrote these two Swiss tales, here translated by Louise Brooks. Rico and Stineli follows a boy on the Lake of Sils, with an old schoolmaster's fiddle, a lake without a name, and a precious legacy left by his mother. How Wiseli Was Provided For tells of an orphan girl found a home.

Both tales prize kindness, faith, and the beauty of mountain lakes and villages. Spyri writes simply, for children and their elders alike. The pair still delights as gentle Alpine stories of loss, friendship, and care.
