«When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit» is Judith Kerr's young adult novel, published by HarperCollins in paperback (256 pages, in English).
With an autobiographical basis, the story follows Anna, a nine-year-old Jewish girl, and her family as they flee Germany after Hitler's rise. Anna's experiences show the uprootedness of exile, adaptation to other countries, languages and customs, and her family's effort to stay united as the war approaches.
This 1998 edition is part of the Collins Modern Classics collection. The work was originally published in 1971.
Aimed at readers aged 9 to 11 and linked to primary education, it serves as a first introduction to the history of Nazism and exile.
Anna Judith Gertrud Helene Kerr was a German-born British writer and illustrator whose books sold more than 10 million copies around the world. She created both enduring picture books such as the Mog series and The Tiger Who Came to Tea and acclaimed novels for older children such as the semi-autobiographical When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit, which gave a child's-eye view of escaping Hitler's persecution in the Second World War. Born in the Weimar Republic, she came to Britain with her family in 1935 to escape persecution during the rise of the Nazis.
