Judith Kerr, the author of the Mog series has died.
I really liked her book When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit. It detailed her and her family's escape from pre-war Germany, into France, then finally to England.
From the article:
On Desert Island Discs in 2004, she told Sue Lawley: "I think of the business of the Holocaust, and the one and a half million children who didn't get out as I got out, in the nick of time -- I think about them almost every day now, because I've had such a happy and fulfilled life and they'd have given anything to have had just a few days of it.
"And I hope I've not wasted any of it: I try to get the good of every bit of it because I know they would have done if they'd had the chance."
Godspeed, lady.
