The period of 1939-1945 contributed much to her popularity. During the war, her actions provided moral support to the British public and the Army. Adolf Hitler called her "the most dangerous woman in Europe". At that time the King and Queen became real symbols of the nationtasks resistance. When the war began in 1939, there was some suggestion that the Queen and her daughters should evacuate to North America or Canada. But the Queen made her famous answer, "The children wontaskt go without me. I wontaskt leave the King. And the King will never leave." During the Second World War the Queen and her children shared the dangers and difficulties of the nation. She was in Buckingham Palace when German planes bombed it in September 1940. Elizabeth said, "Itaskm glad wetaskve been bombed. It makes me feel I can look the East End* in the face." She and the King visited badly damaged areas of the country after the air raids, and they visited hospitals, factories and troops. The Queen supported the Red Cross.* It was her idea to create The Queentasks Book of the Red Cross. Fifty authors and painters contributed to the book. People bought the book to help the Red Cross with money. In her Royal duties, the Queen Mother served the nation for about eighty years, working for many charities and supporting the Royal Armed Forces in peace and war.
