Constipation Herniated Disc

Philip Waechter, the stolen cake and a grandfather, which unfortunately no longer buy.

"Those who do not follow in the footsteps of another, can overtake him," says the so-called vernacular. Philip Waechter was not in the footsteps of his father's genius (FK Waechter), he has - taken a completely own successful way - on a similar terrain. This is his favorite children's book:


"My favorite children's book is on the cake away Thé Tjong-Kling Moritz from the publisher. A picture book, large format and without text, which I immediately thought: oh, such a book I would have made you. fallen



First of all my pictures. Seemingly simple, very loose and precise ink drawings colored with watercolor paints. Amazing, crazy characters (eg chameleons, I have never seen before) in an equally strange landscape.

What happened? Two rats steal the dog family to try a cake from the currently covered garden table flee, and belong at the end a deserved beating. It happens much, much more. Each time, being mainly one discovers more stories, recognizes Relationships and surprised as to who has everything to do with whom.



works one hand, "The cake is gone," like a Wimmelbuch. You can spend much time with the book, long, long look and discover things, on the other hand, it is still pleasant and clear, graphically clear, not too swarmed and fidgety.



This book has everything one wants drama, tempo, romance, morality, and of course the message that no one can steal the dog cake.

asked about a favorite book of my childhood, I remember now "Grandpa Hucke Join Cabinet one of my father Fritz. It is a great book, full of life, while a picture, reading, crafts, comic, game and puzzle book all in one. I spent a whole feel of life in this book to have, without that it would have been boring me.


My love for this book is certainly due to the fact that I in no other book of my father to such an extent had the feeling have been involved, as here. Actually, "Hucke Grandpa" is not only the book of my father, but also that of my brothers and me. I can remember that we are much of what there is in this book, tried together, discussed and invented. Also, I could have spent during the emergence of many hours in my father and I have just been watching only fascinated, like my father draw.


I remember well the fact that this book was a work with a few mishaps. At the end of the book there were pages of explanations, comments, and solutions that complemented the various stories, tasks, or explained. These sites had to be rewritten again and again, expanded and improved, because some things just not working properly or were not clear in your description.


example, there was a page that depicted a man swearing was the angry mad. The object was a small bay between the side down, and close the book lively and familiar with the incarcerated and bursting berry a stain (on the jacket of the man), which will be then have been the trigger for the anger.




My father was surpised completely that produces what a great spot a little currant in a folded-shut book, and thought with horror to the Board letters from parents whose children this spot with a large strawberry make attempted. I was in such things, of course, great fun.

"Grandpa Hucke Mitt Mach cabinet" Unfortunately there have been many Years to purchase more. When I asked the publisher why this book would not hang up again, I was told that this was a typical seventies-book, that we can no longer so today. I understood really have not. But to tell, I lack the objectivity anyway. . Too bad it's all "
