I used to love reading them in the newspaper.
The style and content seem quite similar. With maybe a bit of Tin Tin thrown in for good measure...?
It is so facinating how artists as well as musicians influence each others style.

You got that right, Janice! Great catch. :)
From wikipedia: "Max and Moritz, for instance, was an inspiration for the Katzenjammer Kids."
And from the Katzenjammer Kids entry: "The Katzenjammer Kids was inspired by Max and Moritz, a children's story of the 1860s by German author Wilhelm Busch."

230th birthday of Friedrich Fröbel
Friedrich Wilhelm August Fröbel (or Froebel] (April 21, 1782 – June 21, 1852)
was a German pedagogue, a student of Pestalozzi who laid the foundation for modern education based on the recognition that children have unique needs and capabilities. He developed the concept of the “kindergarten”, developed the Froebel Gifts educational toys, and also coined the word now used in German and English.

I like that you can read the word Google on second view. Clever.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Nice!
Chrissi, what does the child say at the end?
I think I can hear "es ist aber..." ("but it's..."), but I can't make the last word out.
