La petite Heidi passe les années les plus heureuses de son enfance dans un chalet d’alpage tout simple avec son grand-père. Elle parcourt les pâturages grisons du matin au soir en compagnie de Peter le petit chevrier, et de ses chèvres. Cette époque bénie prend fin lorsque sa tante Odette décide de l’emmener à Francfort dans la riche demeure de Monsieur Sesemann. Heidi doit y tenir compagnie à Clara, la fille handicapée de ce dernier, sous la surveillance de Madame Rottenmeier, l’implacable gouvernante. Une grande amitié naît rapidement entre les deux enfants tandis que la grand-mère de Clara éveille Heidi au plaisir de la lecture. Mais malgré cela, Heidi n’est pas heureuse et rêve en secret de revoir ses montagnes et son grand-père.
