Product Information

Teens and twenties absolutely a time of the rollercoaster between the twin poles of love and death, which humanistic psychotherapists are often engaged in working with, with their adult clients. The children’s novel When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit, by Judith Kerr, is the first in a trilogy based on the author’s experience during WWII. Nine-year-old Anna was too busy with schoolwork and friends in 1933 to take much notice of Adolf Hitler's rise to power in her native Germany.

At Books2Door, we believe that reading is a fundamental skill that every child should have to help improve their vocabulary, grammar, and critical thinking skills. I watched a programme about her where she talked about many of the episodes in her books frankly and movingly. Anna/Judith is beautifully soulful and beautifully present to the authenticity of embracing all of it.Angefangen von der unbesorgten 9-jährigen Anna, die mit ihrer Familie von Berlin in die Schweiz geht. That first book, When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit, was definitely written for children close to 9 or 10 as a minimum age, though its upper age readership widens to include the not so young adult as well as the YA market, as the writing itself, and the viewpoint, though accessible, is deep enough to be experienced and enjoyed at whatever level of understanding the reader possesses.

A few years later I read When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit and it became instantly one of the iconic books which defines my childhood, read over and over and over again. The book is an autobiographical novel about the author and her family adventures throughout the hardships of the holocaust. It is an autobiographical novel about a 9 year old girl and her family who become refugees and travel from Germany to various countries from 1933-1935. My favourite scene in the book is right at the beginning, when Anna's friend is discussing Hitler with Anna. Anna's father foresees that this new leader is not good for the country, so he decides to take his family and leave.All of our books are 100% brand new, unread and purchased directly from the publishers in bulk allowing us to pass the huge savings on to you! I like this scene because it is funny and it also shows that many people didn't take Hitler as a really serious threat before he was in power.

Was mir persönlich zum Schluss fehlte, sind Beschreibungen zu früheren, verbundenen und helfenden, Personen.They also learn the Nazis appeared at their Berlin residence to confiscate their passports and bar them from leaving the country. It is from a child's perspective so it is not a gruesome war story, simply about a family trying to live their lives after escaping their home country because they are Jews.

Judith (given the identity of Anna in the books) was a German Jewish girl who left Germany very early, as a child, with her immediate family, and had settled in England, aged 12 by 1936.

I re-read this book last year having read it as a child, this is a more accessible novel for young children to start to learn about the tragic stories of World War Two. A touching duo of simple but affecting autobiographical novels describing the disrupted childhood and coming of age of adaptable Jewish German refugee girl Anna tracing her journey from a comfortable life in Berlin via Switzerland and Paris to London in the Blitz.
