It is such a good book. It tells the story of a German 9 year old girl named Anna. She is Jewish but she hardly ever feels like it because she does not do Jewish things. Her father is a well paid journalist but he was writing bad things about the Nazis. He had been told he was being threatened. As Anna travels she reads a book about found people. They all have hard childhoods. She leaves her home in Germany and then goes to Switserland, Paris and then London. Having to learn diferent languages was a strugle but Anna loved it. Would her childhood as a refugee count as a hard one?

Her dad was a famuos news reporter. Hitler was president and waned to get ride of the jews. Read when hitler stole pink rabit to see what happends next
When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit is a book about a nine-year-old Jewish girl who has to move from Germany, to Switzerland, then to Paris, and finally to England. All because of Hitler. Anna, the girl's father is a well-known author who writes in the newspaper and writes a lot of books. Sometimes, he writes bad things about the Nazis. From this, the Nazis want to take away his passports. So her father went to Switzerland thinking that they should secretly join him there. This book was funny, heart-warming, sad, and adventurous!
