===Tigerente=== [[File:Tigerente Filmpark Babelsberg.JPG|thumb|''Tigerente'' at the [[Babelsberg Studio]]]] [[File:Rzeźby Tygryska i Misia w Zabrzu.jpg|thumb|A sculpture of the Tiger, the Bear, and the ''Tigerente'' in Zabrze]] The '''Tigerente''' ({{lit}} tiger duck) is a children's book character created by Janosch. It is a little wooden toy duck on wheels, striped black on yellow, that is pulled around on a string by various characters of Janosch's books. It never has a line of dialogue, but still has become by far the most popular figure ever created by the author. The Tigerente has since appeared on a wide range of products including posters, postcards, [[high school art project]]s, buttons, [[mug]]s, socks, umbrellas, [[cutlery]], and nearly every item of [[children's furniture]] imaginable. It has been the namesake and mascot of the German TV show ''[[Tigerenten Club]]'', all without ever uttering a single line.<ref name="muenchen.de 2016" /><ref name="DW.COM" />
