Illustrated children's book read by two year old Rita Serphos while in hiding with her family in Amsterdam, Netherlands, from 1941 until the end of the war in 1945. The book was taken with the family from hding place to hiding place. Because Rita was so young, she was not allowed to keep the book with her, but she knew that she could look at it each time they moved.
