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.
