When one baby kid almost got hurt he knew he had God at his side to help him save her.
He loved his job taking the goats up to the mountains each day, eating what was provided by God and being up so close to him. What a sweet little short story of a goat boy and all his goats he cared for. Many ebook formats, including Kindle, are available. Moni the Goat Boy is available for free on both in English and the original German. While Heidi is the only one of her works known in the English-speaking world today, many others are still available in German. She was encouraged to begin writing, and wrote many stories of faith with rural Swiss settings. When she married, she suffered depression after the birth of her only child. Johanna Spyri was one of six children born to a doctor and a Pietist poetess. No movie version has yet done justice to the profound Christian orientation of that book. Johanna Spyri (1827-1901) was a Christian author best known for the book 'Heidi' which was filmed several times, including one version with Shirley Temple in the starring role. The Christian content of the story is very natural and beautiful, not in the least intrusive to the story. The story, filled with local color of the Alps, is a delightful one for all ages. The conclusion of the story tells of Moni's decision and its consequences. When he realizes that he will from now on be unable to ask the Lord for help if he needs to take risks to rescue a goat, on account of the burden of his sin, he begins to think that he will have to tell the truth even if it does cost him the life of his best goat-friend. Moni agrees, but his usual cheerful manner is gone because of the oppressive secret. Jörgli assures Moni's silence by telling him that his very favorite goat is to be butchered, but that Jörgli will save the goat if Moni keeps silence. Moni insists that it would be wrong to do so.
One day Moni's friend Jörgli confides that he has found a valuable piece of jewelry lost by a tourist, and that he intends to sell it to a hotel girl. He loves the goats, and he trusts in the Lord to help him when he has to rescue a goat who's gotten in to a dangerous place on the high mountain. Every day he collects the one or two goats owned by each village household and leads them up the mountain to find fresh grazing. Moni the Goat-Boy follows the story of Solomon, nicknamed Moni, a Swiss lad who's convinced he's got the sweetest job ever- goat-boy of his home village.
