Notes

Anna is too busy with schoolwork and tobogganing to listen to the grown-ups' talk of Hitler. But one day she and her brother are rushed out of Germany in alarming secrecy. Their father is wanted by the Nazis - dead or alive! It is the start of a huge, frightening, very often funny, and always exciting adventure. This book recounts the adventures of this nine-year-old Jewish girl and her family during the early days of the Second World War as they escape and travel from Germany to England.
