STRUWWELPETER & OTHER DISTRUBING TALES A BLAB STORYBOOK STRUWWELPETER & OTHER DISTRUBING TALES: A BLAB STORYBOOK
by Bob Staake A visually stunning reinterpretation of the fairy tale classic! Originally written in 1845 by German physician Heinrich Hoffmann, Der Struwwelpeter reads like a fairy tale breaking loose from a doomed rollercoaster, crashing through a rusty calliope, and finally splashing into the miasmic ooze of Hell - but somehow still managing to float. Mesmerized as a child by the nightmarish prose and haunting images contained in the book, noted author/illustrator Bob Staake gives a 21st century spin to these 14 stories - each more politically incorrect than the next. The nastiest things happen to children who disobey the wishes of their parents: thumb suckers have their digits cut off, the pyro-fascinated are set ablaze and, of course, picky eaters rot away and die prematurely. In other words, precisely the type of bedtime stories you'll want to read to a six-year-old... provided it's not you're six-year-old!
