From the Publisher
Anna was only nine years old in 1933, too busy with her school work and friends to take much notice of Adolf Hitler's face glaring out of political posters all over Berlin. Being Jewish, she thought, was just something you were because your parents and grandparents were Jewish. But then one day her father was unaccountably, frighteningly missing. Soon after, she and her brother, Max, were hurried out of Germany by their mother with alarming secrecy.
Reunited in Switzerland, Anna and her family embark on an adventure that would go on for years, in several different countries. They learn many new things: new languages, how to cope with the wildest confusions, and how to be poor. Anna soon discovers that there are special skills to being a refugee. And as long as the family stayed together, that was all that really mattered.

Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. Jacket and illustrations by the author (illustrator). 1st Edition. First published in 1971, this is a first edition of the commemorative edition, third impression with '3' on copyright page, published 2013. Published to mark the 90th birthday of author and artist Judith Kerr. Some slight edge wear to top and bottom of largely white jacket and spine, back corners very slightly bruised, not price clipped (£12.99), no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg+ copy. 191pp. This sem -autobiographical classic, written by German born Jewish children's author and artist Judith Kerr (1923-2019), tells the story of a Jewish family escaping Germany in the days before the Second World War. This beautiful new hardback celebrates fifty years of an unforgettable adventure that Michael Morpurgo called 'The most life-enhancing book you could ever wish to read'. Suppose your country began to change. Suppose that without your noticing, it became dangerous for some people to live in it any longer, and you found, to your surprise, that your own father was one of those people. This is what happened to Anna in 1933. Anna is too busy with her schoolwork and tobogganing to listen to the talk of Hitler. But one day she and her brother Max are rushed out of Germany in alarming secrecy, away from everything they know. Their father is wanted by the Nazis. This is the start of a huge adventure, sometimes frightening, very often funny and always exciting. Judith Kerr wrote 'When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit' fifty years ago, based on her own journey, so that her own children would know where she came from and the lengths to which her parents went to keep her and her brother safe. It has gone on to become a classic that is required reading for many children all over the world and is an unforgettable introduction to the real life impact of the Second World War. Scarce, even in this later edition. Seller Inventory # 012191
