Heidi and the Barn
The snow lay thick on the ground as Papa’s old Fiat struggled up the hill towards the farm. Heidi and her sisters were beside themselves with excitement. As they rounded the corner, the familiar buildings came into view. The house where Onkel Rolf and Tante Ingeborg lived with their family. The cottage was the home of their grandparents, Mormor and Morfar. During the summer, the flower boxes in the window held a profusion of brightly coloured flowers. And Heidi’s favourite building, the barn.

Dymphna
Dymphna always knew that this day would come. Mam had prepared her for it as long as she could remember. One day, the soldiers would come and Mam would be taken away. Dymphna had now lived ten winters. Ten years of hiding. Ten years of sleeping in the same bed as Mam so that a warm bed would not give her away. Ten years of eating from the same plate lest the soldiers come and find two dirty plates.
