It sounds like you may be referring to "Mit Python Programmieren für Kids" by Georg Lingl (ISBN: 3826609514).

I I'm not sure my kids could cope with simultaneously learning Python and German in one hit, so there could be a nice (very) little earner for someone willing to port the book to English.

Thinking about it; With some decent artwork and a lively written style ("Head First Programming for Kids (using Python)" perhaps?) the opportunity exists to create an audience for whom Python is their first programming language - and consequently their language of choice in the future.

(PS. As a ten year old kid, I'm sure I would have preferred a new bicycle but that's another story.)
