A Small Person Far Away
(Author) Judith Kerr"Anna's mother is in Berlin, deathly ill. But Anna doesn't want to go back to Berlin. Berlin is where Anna lived before Hitler, when she was still a German child; before she spoke a word of English, before her family had all become refugees. Long before her happy new existence in London. But Mama is there, and needs her. So Anna must go- to deal with questions of life and death, to face old fears, and to discover the past which she has so long shut away. Judith Kerr was born in Berlin and left Germany in 1933 to escape the Nazis. Her Out of the Hitler time trilogy novels are based on her own experience."--Back cover
