①Reaction Point - Characters(人物や動物や人として表される自然の力- 文学の力)

Character are persons - or animals or natural forces represented as persons - in a work of literature.

・It's the girl who Heidi is spirited, and is very pure. She can do the attention very much. While She lived with grandfather, quick more came to work for her. Originally, grandfather was very stubborn. But, He was if I lived with Heidi and became tender. 

・Heidi is a girl that is friendly to everyone. I thought that the thoughtful heart to her everybody changed the feelings of people.

“In Our Little Magic Shoes”(1937)

 Have you seen my new shoes
They are made out of wood,


Such nice little shoes,

Don't you think they look good?

I can dance all around

With the greatest of ease

I jump from the ground
To the tops of the trees.

I'll tell you something


I'm going to try

Put on your shoes

And away we'll fly,

We'll take a trip

Where ever we choose,
We'll dance and skip
In our little wooden shoes.

How many miles will you travel with me,


One mile or two miles or may be three.

We'll make a stop where ever we choose,

We'll skip and hop

In our little wooden shoes.



In this movie in this scene, the only character was singing. In the other scene the song never sang. Shirley Temple is a very pretty girl. As a popular child, she sang a song , I felt that people were attached to the movie. 


5. My General opinion


 Heidi was invented by Johanna Jupiri, a Swiss school children's literary writer. Then it was translated in more than 50 countries. Based on the original, countless animation and movies were made. It's still loved all over the world. Speaking of Heidi in Japan everyone imagines a girl Heidi, an anime alpine. I like the scene of the beautiful scenery of the Alps and Heidi running around the mountain in innocence and the scene of cheese to eat at the mountain cottage. For me, Heidi is a special movie I have been watching from a young age. This time I leaned about Heidi, I was able to study Heidi from the viewpoint that was not early childhood was very good. I would like to cherish this traditional work that will not change forever even when the times change.
