 Review of Mog the Forgetful Cat by Judith Kerr
Mog will near the end of her long stay on your bookshelf when your children get to six or so, because the short sentences and sing-song nursery rhyme rhythm of Kerr's text are perfect for the littler of little ones.
The smallest of children laugh at Mog: they identify with the way she lives life for the moment, oblivious to everything but the task in hand, and they love the way she always saves the day by mistake.
Kerr not only wrote, but illustrated the Mog books and she has a great knack of putting some of the action only into the illustrations and not into the text.

 Judith Kerr - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
She is best known for her children's books, both self-illustrated picture titles such as the 17-strong Mog series and The Tiger Who Came To Tea, and novels such as When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit, which semi-autobiographically tells the story of the rise of the Nazis in 1930s Germany from a child's perspective.
She left Germany with her parents and her brother, Michael Kerr, in 1933, soon after the Nazis first came to power.
The family travelled first to Switzerland and then onto France, before finally settling in the UK.

Mog in the Dark (Mog) by Judith Kerr
It was so brave of Judith Kerr to write this, and as a book to introduce the delicate subject of mortality to younger children, I can't see any way it could have been bettered.
Kerr's ilustrations are up-to-scratch and there's no mawkish over-sentimentality but I suggest you stand-by to suppress a lump in your throat!

 When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit by Judith Kerr: book review
Judith Kerr is a wonderful author and is great at expressing what it was like for when Hitler was at power and for the people of 1933.
I like the way Judith Kerr has written about what was happening in the war but the characters not actually experiencing it as they were refuges.
And in Switzerland, i think, Judith kerr shows the reader that all jewish people are accept by the people of switzerland, but that the "german" peopel didn't accept them.........
