I was reading this book yesterday ... as you do .... a gripping, fully-illustrated story ( in verse throughout of course) about a school for hares run by a large tyrannical hare. They seem to do a lot of their lessons in the open air ... and on one rather "special" page we find this .... cripes !! What about that lot !! Like me, you'll be identifying them all and filling your notebooks with, er, notes. Is this what Germany is like ? Crammed with fancy-looking stuff like that ? Probably not quite that bird-crammed. Probably a bit like Lithuania . I've probably mentioned my trip to Lithuania before . Probably. The Germans are pretty hare-obsessed. Häschen = a young hare .... but it can also mean a "bunny-rabbit." Here's a fine song ... Hasenherz ... " Hare Heart" = "a coward". Another reasonably short(-ish) thing.
Brief. But in German, it means a letter.
