Fritz and his wife Margrit, a writer by profession, decided to write a children’s Bible together about the story of Jesus. The birth in the stable, the flight to Egypt, the feeding of the 5,000, the Sermon on the Mount, the entry into Jerusalem, and also the crucifixion on Golgotha—everything was illustrated and narrated in a child-friendly manner. The book was a success, with several editions published in German, and editions in the respective national languages also appearing in America, England, Finland, and the Netherlands.
