Struwwelpeter in English Translation by Heinrich Hoffmann

1845 classic children's book relates the consequences, in funny rhyming couplets, that befall children who torment animals, play with matches, suck their thumbs, and fidget at meals.

Struwwelpeter was written as a Christmas present for his 3-year-old son by Frankfurt psychiatrist Heinrich Hoffmann (1809-94). The doctor's witty and unforgettable fables on the dangers of misbehaving, first published in 1845, are still widely read today.
