Struwwelpeter

05 Struwwelpeter

This is a German poetry book that students learning German may know. Mark Twain fans might know this because his translation is the most widely known of the English versions.

That book provided so many childhood nightmares for my mom and myself. AAAAAH.


My grandmother always calls me Struwelpater when she's mad at me. :(

Oh, wow - these are great! Struwwelpeter rocks. :-)

(By the way, if you haven't already, I highly recommend checking out the musical version by the Tiger Lillies. Very disturbing and very, very funny stuff.)
