BOMBS ON AUNT DAINTY

By the author of The Tiger Who Came to Tea, this is a partly autobiographical second title in Judith Kerr's internationally acclaimed trilogy of books following the life of Anna through war-torn Germany, to London during the Blitz, and her return to Berlin to discover the past. It's hard enough being a teenager in London during the Blitz, finding yourself in love and wondering every night whether you will survive the bombs. But it is even harder for Anna, who is still officially classified as an 'enemy alien'. Those bombs are coming from Germany, the country that was once her own. If Hitler invades, can she and her beloved refugee family possibly survive? Judith Kerr was born in Berlin and left Germany in 1933 to escape the Nazis and this volume was originally published under the title 'The Other Way Round.' A classic family story of escape and refuge: 'But we're anti-Nazi. We've been anti-Nazi long before anyone else!' 386pp, paperback. Ages 11 to adult.
