Heidi Grows Up (Heidi jeune fille), also known as Heidi Grows Up: A Sequel to Heidi, is a 1936 novel and sequel to Johanna Spyri's 1881 novel Heidi, written by Spyri's French and English translator, Charles Tritten, after a three-decade-long period of pondering what to write, since Spyri's death gave no sequel of her own.[1] It was originally published by Flammarion in Paris (1936),[2] and in New York by Grosset & Dunlap (1938), illustrated by Jean Coquillot.[3]
It was followed by four more sequels: Au pays de Heidi, Heidi's Children, Heidi grand'mère and Le sourire de Heidi, of which only the second one has been translated to English.
