Description
A special anniversary edition of a modern classic.
Winner of the CBCA Book of the Year for Young Readers.
The bombs were falling, the smoke was rising from the concentration camps, but Hitler's daughter knew nothing of this. All she knew was the world of lessons with Fraulein Gelber, the hedgehogs she rescued from the cold, and the exciting visits from her beloved father Duffi.
Until the day she is taken to her father's bunker in Berlin ...
Anna's story about Hitler's daughter haunts Mark. Could it have been true? Did Hitler's daughter really exist? If Mark had a father like Hitler, could he love him?
Do things that happened a long time ago still matter?
