So, I have been I have been reading recently published books, such as Red Fox Road, and Music for Tigers. I’m not surprised that some of the less than worthwhile books that were so popular prior to the pandemic are not selling so well anymore. And, I believe that the children who are living through this time need the same thing from the books they are reading. This past year, with all our worries during the pandemic, I realized that I needed not only books to find escape, but also, even more than usual, books that meant something. ![]() But I remember her most for her children’s novels, When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit and those that followed. Judith Kerr was a well known author and illustrator of children’s books The Tiger Who Came For Tea and the Mog stories. It was in The Oldie that I read about the death of Judith Kerr. All too often there are articles about people who have died – mostly really old “oldies”. The articles are written by “oldies” and are about things that “oldies” appreciate, things we remember, those of us of a certain generation. ![]() My husband subscribes to a lovely British magazine called The Oldie. ![]()
