«When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit» is Judith Kerr's young adult novel, published by Penguin Young Readers Group in paperback (192 pages, in English).
Anna, a nine-year-old Jewish girl, lives in Berlin in 1933. When Hitler comes to power, her family must flee Germany: she, her brother, and her mother reunite with her father abroad. The novel, autobiographical in basis, narrates their exile through Switzerland, France, and England, with uprootedness, hardships, and also moments of humor and family life.
Suitable for children and young readers aged 8 to 12, and for those seeking an accessible introduction to Nazi persecution from a girl's perspective.
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.
