When Dr. Heinrich Hoffmann (1804 - 1894), a physician and psychiatrist in Frankfurt, could not find a suitable picture-book for his three-year-old son, he wrote and drew one himself. Der Struwwelpeter was published in 1845 and a translation into English followed only three years later. Der Struwwelpeter became a children's classic all over the world and is still in print today.
