This Nazi-era illustrated children's book was produced under the auspices of Julius Streicher, publisher of the most virulent anti-Semitic propaganda in the Third Reich. Intended for distribution to schools, this book helped justify the "war against the Jews" by graphically portraying their "poisonous" influence in German society.
