Judith was awarded an OBE for services to children’s literature and holocaust education in 2012, the Booktrust Lifetime Achievement Award in 2016, and named Illustrator of the Year at the British Book Awards in 2019. Judith died in 2019, and her stories continue to delight generations of children. Judith Kerr was born in Berlin, Germany. Her father, Alfred Kerr, was one of the city’s most important drama critics before the whole family was forced to leave the country in 1933 to escape from the Nazis. The Kerrs arrived in England in 1936, having spent the intervening years in Switzerland and France. Si me preguntáis por la edad recomendada de lectura para este libro, diría que sería a partir de los doce años... Pero si el niño tiene alto nivel lector, probablemente desde los diez, pero siempre acompañando la lectura con un adulto, ya que hay reflexiones muy sutiles que nosotros les podemos hacer entender.

Suppose your country began to change. Suppose that without your noticing, it became dangerous for some people to live in Germany any longer. Suppose you found, to your complete surprise, that your own father was one of those people. That is what happened to Anna in 1933. She was nine-years-old when it began, too busy with her schoolwork and toboganning to take much notice of political posters, but out of them glared the face of Adolf Hitler, the man who would soon change the whole of Europe - starting with her own small life. It is 1933 and Anna (9 years old) lives in Berlin with her older brother Max and her parents. His father is a famous writer and her mother takes care of the family. They are Jews, although Anna herself explains that “we’re not religious. We don’t go to church at all.” It’s another picture of that man,” said Elsbeth. “My little sister saw one yesterday and thought it was Charlie Chaplin.”

Tales from History

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 beloved 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.

He wants everybody to vote for him in the elections and then he’s going to stop the Jews,” said Elsbeth. “Do you think he’s going to stop Rachel Lowenstein?” This story is not about the holocaust or the war. It is about the struggle of the fleeing Jewish refugees to cope with different cultures and lifestyles and to meet the ends under their diminished financial status. They had to live on their own skill and with the help of kind friends, having given most of their hard-earned valuables to the Nazis. And all because they are of Jewish origin! Yes, thanks to God that they have saved their lives, their most precious thing. Still, being displaced and living like gypsies is not easy as one may think. Wherever they go, they don't feel at home; they don't feel that they belong there; they feel their difference from the others. Then there is the other side of the coin. Living as "refugees" and being of "Jewish origin" they had to be patient, submissive, and endure all the slighting with swallowed indignation. This mindset is sincerely and sensitively portrayed by the author. I loved the book and am so glad that I’ve read it. I want to go on and read the next two books. It would have been a huge loss (even if I had never realized it) if I’d never gotten to this book. It’s an excellent book. There are lovely illustrations at the top of the start of each chapter in Judith's distinctive style. Although the book comes to an end in some ways they reach England and therefore a country that will finally be a safe place from the nazis There are two more books in this series which I am greatly looking forward to reading.Me ha gustado está historia.

FINAL THOUGHTS ABOUT “WHEN HITLER STOLE PINK RABBIT” Based on the author’s own experience as a child, this is a story of a German Jewish girl and her family who flee from their home in Berlin just before Hitler comes into power in 1933. Nine-year-old Anna does not really understand why her family leaves Germany, but during the next three years in Switzerland, France, and England, she learns from firsthand experience what it is like to be a refugee.”

When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit Book Review | Common Sense Media When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit Book Review | Common Sense Media

La novela tiene ya unas cuantas décadas, pero todo lo que en ella se narra se puede interpretar comparándolo con nuestra situación actual. Nuestro país recibe refugiados y hay opiniones muy diversas en la sociedad sobre ello. No entraré a opinar personalmente, pero creo que el libro es una gran oportunidad de acercar a nuestros pequeños lectores una gran realidad, pasada, presente y por desgracia también futura. In my opinion, “When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit” is more a book about emigration than about the Jews or WWII.

Ten Amazing Interviews

Anna has to beat the many difficulties she encounters during her exile. She has to adjust to different school systems and even learn a new language, French. I reread this childhood favourite as a buddy read with Lisa Vegan. This was a wonderful book to read as a buddy read, so much happening in short chapters made it really enjoyable to discuss each day after reading. I liked Max because he learnt a new language to fit in and liked fishing. Mama tried to keep the children safe and follow her husbands advice. The father was a reporter and so he was on Hitlers most wanted ist. He had to flee for his life but he was brave enough to continue to write for the newspaper. I wish my father wasn’t religious,” said Elsbeth. “We have to go every Sunday and I get cramp in my seat.” She looked at Anna curiously. “I thought Jews were supposed to have bent noses, but your nose is quite ordinary. Has your brother got a bent nose?”
