Quotes from
Heidi:
I used to go to Sunday school. Are you going to be my Sunday school teacher, too?
Adolph Kramer, The Grandfather: We'll have our first lesson now.
Heidi: I'd like to read this story. Shall I? "A certain man had two sons, and the wilder and Y-O-U-N-G-E-R..."
Adolph Kramer, The Grandfather: Younger.
Heidi: "Younger of them said to his father, ''ather, give me the P-O-R... '" These are hard words. Maybe you'd better help me.
Adolph Kramer, The Grandfather: "'Give me the portion of goods which is mine.' So the father divided his leaven among them, and the son went away into a foreign country."
Heidi: You know the story by heart.
Adolph Kramer, The Grandfather: Yes, by heart.
Heidi: Did the son ever come home to his father?
Adolph Kramer, The Grandfather: "And the son said, 'Father, I have sinned against Heaven and against you, and I am no longer fit to be called your son.' But the father said, 'Bring the best robe and put it on him, and put rings on his finger. Bring the fattened calf and kill it. For this my son was dead and is alive again. He was lost and now is found.'"
Police Captain: You broke out of the Rittenstrasse jail. You took a sled that did not belong to you. You stole that child!
Heidi: He didn't steal me!
Adolph Kramer, The Grandfather: I tell you, she's mine!
Police Captain: Silence!
Police Lieutenant: Herr Captain, we have found the woman.
Police Captain: Good, bring her in. Is this your child?
Fräulein Rottenmeier: Yes, yes, Herr Captain.
Heidi: No, I'm not!
Police Captain: And is this the man who struck you in the street and took her away from you?
Fräulein Rottenmeier: Yes.
Adolph Kramer, The Grandfather: She's lying! I don't know who she is or what she's doing, but Heidi is mine!
Police Captain: That's enough! You will be held for trial!
Adolph Kramer, The Grandfather: You stupid fools! Can't you see what you're doing?
Police Captain: Lock him up!
Klara Sesemann: Isn't Heidi the funniest little thing? I'm so glad she's going to stay.
Andrews, the Butler: Is she?
Klara Sesemann: Yes, but she doesn't know it. The poor dear thinks she's going home today. But she'll be happier here, don't you think? And I'll have some new dresses made for her.
Andrews, the Butler: Do you think you could manage a new hat?

Facts about
As she had worried about Jane Withers in Bright Eyes three years before, Shirley Temple's mother, Gertrude Temple, worried that Marcia Mae Jones would steal the spotlight from her daughter in this movie. However, Shirley and Marcia Mae worked well with each other and appeared together again in The Little Princess.
For the scene in which Heidi is butted by a goat and falls over, Shirley Temple was butted for the first few takes. Although she later said that being butted was not painful, her mother Gertrude Temple became concerned for her safety and insisted that a stunt double be used.
Having acted with him four years before in To the Last Man, Shirley Temple chose Delmar Watson to play Peter in this movie.
