Judith Kerr ha creato storie durature che offrono una prospettiva infantile su eventi storici complessi e sulla vita quotidiana. La sua opera è celebrata per la sua capacità di affrontare temi profondi con un tocco delicato e una voce autentica. Attraverso le sue distintive illustrazioni e narrazioni perspicaci, ha esplorato la resilienza, lo sradicamento e la natura duratura dell'infanzia. L'eredità letteraria di Kerr risiede nella sua capacità unica di connettersi con lettori di tutte le età attraverso l'onestà e una sottile profondità emotiva.
Si può esseri felici lontani da casa? Anna e la sua famiglia, braccate dai nazisti, hanno dovuto lasciare Berlino e cambiare città più volte. Adattarsi non è facile, ma la cosa più importante è restare insieme.
A lavishly illustrated retrospective in celebration of the 90th birthday of Judith Kerr, author of The Tiger Who Came to Tea and many other iconic books. Her story begins with the extraordinary events of her early childhood in Berlin, dramatically cut short by the rise of Hitler’s Nazi Party in 1933. Judith tells of her family’s struggles with language and money, and what it was like to be a German refugee in London during the war. We see her early attempts at drawing and writing; her sketches and work from art school, and her textile designs from her first job. We hear of her life-changing meeting with her future husband, the scriptwriter Nigel Kneale, and her time at the BBC, first as a reader and then as a scriptwriter herself. Judith’s career as a children’s book writer and illustrator began after she had children, and over forty years on she is still producing classic picture books. She is a rare and wonderful talent and this is a fascinating insight into the person behind the books that have been enjoyed by generations.
