| Description: |
Based on Dr. Heinrich Hoffman's 19th century Struwwelpeter stories, these German cautionary tales are presented with all the macabre humor of the original. Using small hand puppets, and himself as the story-teller/parent-figure, Preston Foerder depicts the grisly fate of disobedient children. From Slovenly Peter, who refuses to cut his hair and nails to Paulina, who plays with matches, to Casper, who won't eat his soup, there are nine tales in all. "Slovenly Peter" has won the UNIMA-USA
Citation of Excellence. |
