A Precocious Girl (German title: Csibi, der Fratz aka Früchtchen) is a 1934 Austrian comedy film directed by Max Neufeld and Richard Eichberg and starring Franciska Gaal, Leopoldine Konstantin and Herbert Hübner. The film's sets were designed by art director Julius von Borsody.

The film was made by the German subsidiary of Universal Pictures. Because of the Nazi rise to power Gaal and other Jewish filmmakers went to Austria and Hungary to work on a series of comedy films.^[1] A separate Italian version of the story Unripe Fruit was released the same year.

It was remade in Hollywood in 1942 as Between Us Girls, with the setting moved to America.
