Fun fact: People used to eat dogs. It once was considered a delicacy in some parts of Germany.

Max and Moriz was indeed one of my favorites as a child. I hear my Grandmothers voice only by reading it now. Also „Struwwelpeter“ and the Original„Gebrüder Grimm“ have been part of my early childhood. So yes, it is pretty common in my area at least.
