In April 2010, a Swiss scholar named Peter Otto Büttner, uncovered a book written in 1830 by the German author de:Hermann Adam von Kamp. The 1830 story is titled "Adelaide: The Girl from the Alps" (German: Adelaide, das Mädchen vom Alpengebirge). The two stories share many similarities in plot line and imagery. Spyri's biographer de:Regine Schindler said it was entirely possible that Spyri may have been familiar with the story as she grew up in a literate household with many books.
