About
Henni Nachtsheim reads from his book De Grüffelo auf Hessisch, the Gruffalo story told in Hessian dialect. He also reads from the classic Grüffelo and, if time allows, from Die Oma vom Grüffelo, the newest book by Axel Scheffler. A book signing follows. It suits kids who already know the story and follow German well. The dialect can be hard going for families still learning the language.
