Hey, do you know some kid german books which are easy to find in pdf/etc?

Alright, I’m going to say it straight away - you have the choice between mostly terrifying books and books you probably won’t find as free PDFs. If you’re primarily looking for free & legal downloads that are public domain, that puts the latest possible publishing year at 1945. And I’m telling you that most (popular) German books for kids that were published up to 1945 were absolutely terrifying. These are memes about them! So I’m gonna give you a list of those books you’ll probably find somewhere because they’re public domain by now, but they’re rated on a fear scale because I feel that’s the responsible thing to do for a potential kid reader …

I’ve also put authors in cursive that are very versatile, as in “you can read them as a kid, as a teen, this author is just really good with writing for children and teens in general”. Books published after 1945 might be online too but I’m not recommending illegal copies you can look for them yourself ok

public domain, probably floating around as PDFs

Wilhelm Busch: Max und Moritz - 4/5

Heinrich Hoffmann: Der Struwwelpeter - 100/5

Karl May: Winnetou series - 2/5

Gebrüder Grimm: Märchen - 4/5

Kurt Held: Die rote Zora und ihre Bande - 2/5

Erich Kästner: Emil und die Detektive - 2/5

Erich Kästner: Das doppelte Lottchen - 1/5

Erich Kästner: Das fliegende Klassenzimmer - ?/5

not public domain ‘cause published after 1945, still very worth a shot

stories about kids being kids, animals, fluff, etc. (misc)

Janosch: illustrations & stories, idk titles

Paul Maar: Das Sams

Otfried Preußler: Der Räuber Hotzenplotz

stories about friend groups

Joachim Masannek: Die wilden Fußballkerle

Cornelia Funke: Die wilden Hühner

Rolf Kalmuczak: Ein Fall für TKKG

Wolfgang Herrndorf: Tschick

stories about fantasy & stuff

Cornelia Funke: Herr der Diebe / Tintenwelt-Trilogie / …

Kerstin Gier stories, i.e. Edelstein-Trilogie (more for teens, but funny)

Kai Meyer: Die Wellenläufer / Arkadien erwacht

Christoph Marzi: Malfuria-Trilogie

Walter Moers: all of his stuff

haunting stories

James Krüss: Timm Thaler oder das verkaufte Lachen

Michael Ende: Momo

Michael Ende: Die unendliche Geschichte

Jutta Richter: Der Hund mit dem gelben Herzen oder die Geschichte vom Gegenteil

Honorable mention: Swedish writer Astrid Lindgren, wildly beloved in Germany. Books of hers I really liked are Die Brüder Löwenherz (made me WEEP) & the more famous Die Kinder von Bullerbü. She also wrote Pippi Langstrumpf.

#good luck!#german stuff
