About the Books This paperback collection brings together the complete Out of the Hitler Time trilogy exactly as originally published. When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit opens in Berlin, 1933, as nine-year-old Anna and her family flee Germany when her father, a prominent Jewish writer, becomes a Nazi target; Anna leaves behind her home and beloved toy rabbit as the family escapes across Europe. Bombs on Aunt Dainty , originally published as The Other Way Round, follows Anna as a teenager in London during the Blitz, navigating first love and nightly danger, ending on VE Day. A Small Person Far Away completes the trilogy years later, as an adult Anna is called back to a divided Berlin to her seriously ill mother, forcing her to confront a past she thought she had left behind.
