This semi-autobiographical classic, written by Judith Kerr, tells the story of a Jewish family escaping Germany in the days before the Second World War. Tacy Kneale, Judith’s daughter, reads this extraordinary audio edition of the unforgettable adventure Michael Morpurgo called 'The most life-enhancing book you could ever wish to read'. Suppose your country began to change. Suppose that without your noticing, it became dangerous for some people to live in it any longer and you found, to your surprise, that your own father was one of those people.
