They mention that Liesel's father was a Communist - there is a good chance that her mother was too. They sent Communists to concentration camps. Given that, and the fact that Liesel's mother was sick, there was a good chance that Liesel (and her brother) would either be orphaned or sent to a concentration camp shortly. The subtext is that the mother knew this, and found better living conditions for them. It was a smart move, since the scene where she does not respond to Liesel's letters hints that she has either already died or been sent away.

I just finished this beautiful book and came across your question. I see that is has been answered already, but I just wanted to say that your English is wonderful. This comment is 3 years old, and I hope in that time you have gained confidence in your English abilities! I'm also curious, after three years, have you stopped crying about this book because I currently can't stop crying ;)
