Marion Rochmann, 14, from Berlin, the only child of her Karl and Elsa, was sent on the Kindertransport to London, where she stayed at the home of family friends. Her parents were deported from Berlin in 1942 to their deaths. The puppy doll is one of the only items left from Marion's murdered parents' home.
During her stay in England Marion wrote "A Song for Mother" -
"For the first time in my life, I cannot give you anything personally [for your birthday]. Don't be too sad - it will all pass. I'm sure you realize how much hope and good cheer I wish you during your present sorrow. I am sure we will meet again next year; perhaps we could go to the Metropolitan Museum. "
