That's from "Struwwelpeter". She played with fire.
Yes her fault, why did she play with the fire though?? German fairytales are just realistic ๐
Her first mistake was being a child in a german folktale
I laughed too much about this. Really a good one.
Yeah she should have opted to be a Disney princess
Not a folk tale either. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Struwwelpeter
Because there were no games on her phone
shows block of wood
It's not a fairy tale.
German here: Struwelpeter is not a Fairytale book. Its more of Proto-Comic-Book in rhymes from the Autor Wilhelm Busch. He tried to write "funny" stories for kids in these days, that tells them also a lesson. It were another time back then ;)
Many of his stories, especially his most famous story "Max und Moritz", is common folk-lore and gets recited in everyday German
