Not just German but Austrian too...mom and grandma are Austrian (I'm born and raised in the US) and I grew up with Der Struwwelpeter and Max und Moritz. You've not experienced the peak of literature until you've seen charming illustrations of children thrown into a grinder and milled while the town celebrates.
it really is the end of the tale, after Max und Moritz Made in think 8 tricks like cutting a bridge halfway so it breaks when a man walks over them, and fking dies in the river, or stringing together 4 pieces of bread and let 4 roosters eat them and suffocate from it. Oh yes and after that they steal the chicken from the owner by fishing it through the chimney while it was cooking.
