  1. When Hitler stole pink rabbit

    • 267 pages
    • 10 hours of reading

    Englische Literatur in Reclams Roter Reihe: das ist der englische Originaltext – ungekürzt und unbearbeitet mit Worterklärungen am Fuß jeder Seite, Nachwort und Literaturhinweisen. Judith Kerrs autobiographische Geschichte ist inzwischen zum internationalen Jugendbuch-Klassiker geworden. Sie behandelt exemplarisch das Schicksal einer jüdischen Familie in Deutschland unter dem Nationalsozialismus, auf der Flucht und in der englischen Emigration. Persönliches Erleben und politische Erfahrung durchdringen sich. Die unsentimentale Perspektive des Kindes lässt das Grauen umso eindrücklicher erscheinen, sorgt aber auch für überraschende Komik. Englische Lektüre: Niveau B2 (GER)
