Summary/Abstract: This article addresses the phenomenon of the picture book, a good example of which is a pioneering work by HEINRICH HOFFMANN, Der Struwwelpeter. The word and the picture – as equally important components of the entire text – are meant to cause children to remain obedient. Among some authors, however, there appears discrepancy as to what conduct should be viewed as proper, which is reflected in their textual and graphic message. The examples of this we can find in, for instance, Der Anti-Struwwelpeter and Złota Różdżka, which have been juxtaposed here in a comparative analysis with Hoffmann’s work. Moreover, the text presents a collection of additional comments made by students of German Studies at the University of Gdańsk as recipients of the said works. The remarks cited concern relationships between the text and picture in the prototype and its subsequent versions.
