Thanks Laura,
I watched the movie "mein Name ist Eugen" using my basic Swiss German understanding and I had no idea it came from a book - I will be going out to buy it at the weekend!


P.S. an extremely sweet movie, which has High German subtitles/soundtrack.

looking forward to your next offerings!

Nice list, I think it covers very well what people who are now grown-ups typically read when they were children. Today, Harry Potter would have to been added and all of the novels of Walter Moers, many of them are also available in English.

Drachenreiter by Cornelia Funke is also good

Thank you for the reading list. I have been looking for some German books to read.
I enjoy listening to your podcast, they are very helpful.Thank you for doing these podcast. They must take a lot of time and effort to produce.

Hi all,

The adjectival endings podcast will be coming out soon. Until then, this is a bonus post about German children's books. Although I think children's books are far from the easiest thing to read in a foreign language, they can be very enjoyable, and also they can let you into the culture of another country by letting you see what people were reading when they were kids. This list comes from a member of the German forum at http://www.dict.cc/ and he has given me his permission to reproduce it here (comments he made about a book are in round brackets, comments by me in square brackets):

- "Ronja Räubertochter" by Astrid Lindgren [this book is a translation from Swedish, but still essential reading for German children according to Bacca]
- "Michel aus Lönneberga" by Astrid Lindgren [same applies - this book is called Emil i Lönneberga in Swedish and Emil of Lönneberga in English. Bacca says it was changed in German so people wouldn't get confused with Emil and the Detectives.]
- "Die feuerrote Friederike" by Christine Nöstlinger
- "Der lange Weg des Lukas B." by Willi Fährmann (and the whole Bienmann tetralogy, of course)
- Anything by Erich Kästner [this includes Emil and the Detectives]
- "Winnetou I,II+III" by Karl May (hardly readable nowadays - but necessary to learn to skim a text until something happens)
- "Momo" by Michael Ende
- "Die unendliche Geschichte" by Michael Ende
- "Jim Knopf und Lukas der Lokomotivführer" by Michael Ende
- "Der satanarchäolügenialkohöllische Wunschpunsch" by Michael Ende
- "Vorstadtkrokodile" by Max von der Grün
- "Krücke" by Peter Härtling
- "Oh wie schön ist Panama" by Janosch (A storybook, but the best one ever)
- "Timm Thaler oder das verkaufte Lachen" by James Krüss (There is a whole cyclus by James Krüss, "Geschichten der 101 Tage" - I haven't read it completely, but if all the stories are as good as Timm Thaler is, I can recommend it without any hesitation.)
- "Eine Woche voller Samstage" by Paul Maar (and all the other Sams-books)
- "Der Räuber Hotzenplotz" by Otfried Preußler
- "Die Sagen des klassischen Altertums" by Gustav Schwab
- "Heidi" by Johanna Spyri
- "Mein Name ist Eugen" by Klaus Schädelin

One suggestion: Struwwelpeter, by Heinrich Hoffmann, preferably with his own original illustrations.

It's an 1840s "tough love" book of funny rhyming stories telling what horrible things happen to kids who don't mind their parents.

It's in the public domain and you can find copies on Google Books. If you look around you can purchase a dual language translation where Mark Twain did the English.

Good fun.

Good day everyone, i am so glade coming back to this great forum to testify about the help i received from Carrol Walker. I was in desperate need of a loan in other to be free from debt and financial bondage that was place on me by my ex husband. It was really bad that i have to seek for help from Friends,family and even my bank but on one could assist me because my credit score was really bad. So i was browsing with my computer and saw some testimonies from people Carrol Walker assisted with a loan, then i decided to contact him on his email{infoloanfirm8@gmail.com}, then i received a mail from them and i did all that was asked from me. To my greatest surprise they transferred to my account the loan i requested and now i am so happy clearing my debt and have also started a business with the remaining amount to take care of myself and family. If you need a loan do contact the best loan lender of all time Carrol Walker on his email: {infoloanfirm8@gmail.com}

Nama saya Rafif Apriani, saya membaca cerita bagaimana ibu Yanti Ari meminjam dari PINJAMAN KEPERCAYAAN GARANSI dengan bantuan perancang busana ternama DIAN PELANGI. Dalam kisahnya, dia menceritakan bagaimana dia kehilangan banyak uang (Rp28.000.000,00) dari pemberi pinjaman yang buruk karena dia membutuhkan pinjaman untuk meningkatkan usahanya.
Dia juga menceritakan bagaimana dia menghubungi Dian Pelangi yang menginstruksikan dia untuk menghubungi Ibu Ana Micheal dari PINJAMAN KEPERCAYAAN GARANSI dan itulah cara dia meminjam pinjaman yang dia butuhkan untuk meningkatkan usahanya. Jadi saya melihat cerita ibu Yanti Ari dengan detailnya, detail Dian Pelangi dan Ibu Ana Michael dari PINJAMAN KEPERCAYAAN GARANSI yang mereka pinjam semua.

Detil Dian Pelangi :: email: (DIANPELANGIINDONESIA@GMAIL.COM)
dia tinggal di Jakarta.
Detil Ibu Yanti Ari :: Nomor teleponnya: +62821-1644-0184
Nomor Whatsapp: +62821-1644-0184
dia tinggal di Kota Medan, emailnya: ARIY6261@GMAIL.COM
Dan akhirnya perusahaan pinjaman asli yang saya ingin siapa saja yang membutuhkan pinjaman dapat menghubungi karena saya sekarang menjadi saksi yang hidup dan semoga Allah selalu memberkati hari saya menghubungi mereka.
Nama perusahaan: PINJAMAN KEPERCAYAAN GARANSI, alamat email: (ANAMICHAELGUARANTYTRUSTLOANS@GMAIL.COM)

Ketika saya menghubungi ibu yanti dia bercerita bagaimana dia meminjam dari ibu Ana Michael tentang PINJAMAN KEPERCAYAAN GARANSI dan seluruh prosesnya. Dengan senang hati saya sampaikan kepada masyarakat umum bahwa Ibu Ana Michael dari GUARANTY TRUST LOANS adalah yang terbaik dan terpercaya.

Sudah empat tahun sekarang saya telah memberikan kesaksian tentang bagaimana saya meminjam Rp1,2 miliar dari ibu Helen dan beberapa orang meragukan saya karena tingkat penipuan online. Ibu Helen Wilson telah memberi saya satu hal lagi untuk tersenyum karena setelah menyelesaikan angsuran pinjaman bulanan yang saya pinjam sebelumnya, saya memohon kepada Ibu Helen bahwa saya ingin pergi untuk ekspansi bisnis lebih lanjut sehingga saya meminta tambahan Rp3,7 miliar setelah melalui saya proses hukum. pinjaman itu disetujui oleh manajemen mereka dan saya menerima pinjaman saya dalam waktu kurang dari 48 jam di rekening bank BRI saya. Saya tidak memiliki tantangan dengan bank karena Mrs. Helen Wilson dan tim manajemen pinjaman WEMA Finance telah dianggap sebagai pemberi pinjaman yang sah baik di Amerika Serikat, MALAYSIA, INDONESIA dan Rumania, sehingga tidak ada masalah sama sekali.
Untuk pinjaman apa pun, saya sangat merekomendasikan Ibu Helen Wilson hari ini dan selalu
