More Description"Cornelli," the story of the winsome, yet sensitive, little heroine, who suffers from the unjust suspicion of her elders, is equally as entertaining as "Heidi." Many will consider it a finer piece of work on account of its deeper treatment of child character.
How "Cornelli" was restored to herself and reinstated in her father's affection forms a narrative of unusual interest and truth in life. Whereas, in "Heidi" there is only one other childish figure, we have here a lively and varied array of six children. Manly, generous Dino; Mux, the irrepressible and the two girls form a truly lovely group. That the story of "Cornelli" will equal "Heidi" in popularity is therefore to be expected, and there can be no question that it will delight Madam Spyri's many admirers.
