Editorial Reviews

About the Author

Frustrated by the moralistic tone of contemporary children's books, Heinrich Hoffmann (1809–1894) wrote and illustrated this book full of exaggerated consequences for misbehavior, and it has delighted and terrified generations since.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not the best copy, December 9, 2010
I just bought this book and the story is exactly as I remember it, but I am a little disappointed by the quality of the book. The pages look as if they are simply color copies of an older book and are printed on one side only. I had also thought that the original German verses were included in this version, but they are not. I like the book, just wish I could have looked at this version before I bought it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Der Struwwelpeter ist SEHR GUT!!!, February 25, 1999
Der Struwwelpeter is an excellent book for children. It's written in German. It's all about manners. Want your child not to play with matches? Want him to eat everything on his plate?? This is the book for you. I loved it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Effective, September 10, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Der Struwwelpeter (German and English Edition) (Hardcover)
My mother is German and she read this book to me all the time when I was a child. It teaches lesson about playing w/matches, teasing people, not eating dinner, running with scissors...etc. I never did any of those things after reading this book. A must for parents.
