Read Toni, the Little Woodcarver Storyline:
A little story of Swiss peasant life by the author of Heidi. “The popular author of ‘Heidi’ here writes another charming tale of the Alps. Its scene is the Bernese Oberland, and its characters the simple mountaineers and village folk whom Miss Spyri knows so well. Toni, the central figure, is a little goat-herder who longs to develop his gift of wood carving. How his fondest wish is gratified is the theme of the story. Every child will like it for its direct simplicity – and older readers as well.” -Publishers Weekly “Another Alpine story by an author who has already become beloved by the children. Her stories are told in a simple, sympathetic way which holds the attention. The life of little Toni and his mother in their stone hut on the mountain side and later the opportunity which came to this gentle little boy to develop his passion for carving animals are brought out with the same charm which has characterized the earlier stories.” -American Childhood, Volumes 4-5, 1919 Toni, the Little Woodcarver will capture and hold children\'s interest while developing their reading skills and deepening their appreciation of the world\'s great stories.Pages of Toni, the Little Woodcarver :
