Overall dealt with many common childhood challenges, such as sucking ones thumb, racism, watching where one is walking and even hygiene. Teaches many good morals still relevant today with scary pictures sure to intimidate the child reader. One that could easily be added to a classroom library.

Another classic for children's literature from a German author. This is also a book that I read when I was a child and just rediscovered again a few weeks ago. Still nice and refreshing, though the stories are a little too short for my taste.

This book of cautionary tales gives vivid descriptions of what could happen to children who disobey or behave unwisely. However, it would probably be quite frightening to small children. I loved it.

This is the first time I've ever read this. I only knew some stories before, but it was pretty fun and the pictures and rhymes were funny too. Love it ofc.

Warum lese ich ein Kinderbuch? Weil alle Deutsche das kennen und ich mich ausgeschlossen fühlte, lass mich in Ruhe.
