Judith Kerr's semi-autobiographical story set in Berlin in 1933. Anna's father has flu.

Judith Kerr's semi-autobiographical story set in Berlin in 1933. Anna's famous father has flu. Read by Rosemary Leach.

Classic novel set in Berlin in 1933, as Adolf Hitler's election campaign is underway. 

Judith Kerr's semi-autobiographical story, first published in 1971.

Read by Rosemary Leach. 

This is the story of nine year-old Jewish girl Anna and her family's attempt to escape from the Nazis.

Judith wrote it for her son to explain her own story of her family fleeing Nazi Germany. 

Her father was a drama critic and a distinguished writer whose books were burned by the Nazis. 

Kerr found herself a fairly willing refugee, seeing her long travels as a great adventure. A view her parents went to great pains to confirm, often hiding their own personal and professional privations and struggles from their young children. 

Abridged in five parts by Elizabeth Bradbury.

Producer: Peter Hutchings  

First broadcast on BBC Radio 5 in February 1991.
