Judith Kerr, the British book author and illustrator, who delighted children with tales of a hungry tiger and a mischievous cat named Mog, died May 22 at her home in London. She was 95.

Ms. Kerr moved to England in 1933 when her family left Germany to escape the growing threat of Nazism. She would later write about the experience in “When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit,” the first in a trilogy of children’s books about a fictional Jewish girl named Anna, who flees the Nazis and returns to Berlin after WWII.

Ms. Kerr was recently named illustrator of the Year at the British Book Awards. Her newest book, “The Curse of the School Rabbit,” is scheduled for publication next month, following a career that has spanned 50 years.
