Johanna Spyri es una las escritoras suizas mas conocidas y traducidas. Al perder a su esposo y a su hijo, encontro consuelo en la escritura. Llego a compilar un gran numero de cuentos infantiles en los que refleja la gran nostalgia que sentia por la vida en las montañas. Su personaje mas celebre es Heidi.
