Der Struwwelpeter ("shock-headed Peter" or "Shaggy Peter") is an 1845 German children's book by Heinrich Hoffmann. It comprises ten illustrated and rhymed stories, mostly about children. Each has a clear moral that demonstrates the disastrous consequences of misbehavior in an exaggerated way.
Die Geschichte vom bösen Friederich ("The Story of Wicked Frederick"): A violent boy terrorizes animals and people. Eventually, he is bitten by a dog, who goes on to eat the boy's food while Frederick is bedridden. In this video, I retell the story for absolute beginners in German.

Learn German the natural way with comprehensible easy German!
In the classroom we are told to endlessly study grammar and memorise concepts, however, research shows that language is acquired through authentic experiences. The concept of Natürlich German is based on Dr. Stephen Krashen's second language acquisition theory, in which one uses comprehensible input to acquire a language, rather than 'learn' it.
More on comprehensible input:

This video is worth like 20 lessons in most language learning apps. I'm learning that learning vocabulary and listening to stories is pointless without context and repetition. You do a fantastic job of repeating words and miming them so we understand the context. Thanks you for this!

[@markthomson4700]

Gosh, what a heartwarming story.

[@polina1735]

You don't say 😹😹😹

[@caroldefender4144]

Sarcasm, right?

[@johnroemer4315]

i know right, i was watching like am I understanding this right? lol

[@James_Dolensky]

Wow. This is such a good way to learn German. I've watched videos of German children's stories but the way you read them is like you're reading it to an actual child that doesn't know what all the words mean.

[@jimphillips7701]

I am so glad that I discovered your channel! A2 learner here. I very much appreciate all the hard work you put into your stories. Well done. I am learning a lot. Vielen Dank!

[@NiallDempsey-jp7fl]

I really loved every second of this,the way you explained every bit word for word with your fingers pointing helping us understand every word of the German being used has got to be the most valuable single piece of communication to help any English speaking person everywhere!!..well done!! 🙂👏👍

[@hoangvy2837]

I’m really appreciate your work. I’ve been troubling with listening and you helped me and many others alot. Thank you!

So many people love German sausages, they think they're the best. But Germans seem to think they're the Wurst

[@elinannestad5320]

I had this book as a child, handed down by my godmother. I was always frightened of it, even as an adult I could not open it and did not like even to touch it - so it just stayed in the cupboard with my other childhood books for many years. I only got up the courage to throw it out when I was 40 and had my own little girl - I wasn't going to let this book anywhere near her!

[@MsKatylex]

Why would you be frightened of the book?? 🗿

[@vanessaoparaugo]

Thank you so much for this. I've had trouble looking for stories and audio that aren't too advanced and aren't too basic for me and this is perfect. Danke schön!

[@edwardzone4009]

This is very very helpful, I am currently studying German. I understood the story well. You deserve more subs. I will recommend your page to all the german learners that I know. Thank you!

[@joannap2019]

This is an excellent example of learning acquisition technique. It was enjoyable and easily followed. This is the first video that I have found that does this correctly. I have just subscribed, and I will pass this on to other English speakers trying to learn German that i know about in the USA. Thank you so much for your time and effort. I'm a big fan of your work.

[@eoghanoconnell2842]

I like this teacher.

[@muhammadhydara04]

Thanks this is what l was looking for

[@lifecoachbells]

This is the first time I've seen your channel and I'm absolutely delighted! It would be wonderful if in your description you put a link for somebody to purchase the book! Because this is a storybook I would love to own and I would also love to have it in my hands while watching your video and looking at the things up close. Perhaps it could be another revenue stream for you? But regardless I would love it if it were linked to the book so that I could buy a copy 🙏🏻 And your facial expression and your pronunciation is amazing! Your speed is perfect. 35 to 40 years ago I was fluent in German and I have forgotten most of it but I believe that it is still in my head someplace... Nearly listening to this while watching you and by the end I could understand about a third of the words! I wish I had an 8-hour long video of you reading things that I could listen to while I sleep because I think it would trigger all of those memories to come back to the surface 😂 Thank you for what you are doing!

[@louisamendoza7249]

Love your teaching, I know only couple of words! I will try my best to learn more, i like your Garden, your terracotta pot makes it more beautiful!
