Description
Mr. Taschenbier is a fearful person. He is afraid of his landlady, of his boss and of all the people who scold and give orders - until one Saturday he runs into a creature and quickly decides to let him stay. The creature is a fearless, almost disrespectful creature who doesn't allow himself to be intimidated by anything or anyone, who makes cheeky comments everywhere and scolds back when others scold. Mr. Taschenbier is terribly embarrassed at first and tries all sorts of ways to get rid of show more the creature. But the longer Mr. Taschenbier lets him stay, the more likely the creature is to win. And in the end, the good, fearful Mr. Taschenbier becomes a self-confident person who has learned to assert himself. show lessTags

Match found in the German National Library.
Witzig und nett, an manchen Stellen vielleicht geringfügig langatmig; aber auch schon manche Leseanfänger lesen das mit Interesse und aus eigenem Antrieb. Auch für Vorschul-Geschwisterkinder zum Zuhören geeignet.
