The Book Thief: entry 1
The major characters in my book are this little girl named Liesel, who's the main character, her foster dad Hans Hubermann, her foster mom Rosa Hubermann, her best friend Rudy, and this Jewish man named Max Vandenburg, who the Hubermann family hides in their basement. The setting of this book takes place during the Holocaust and World War II, which is why the family hides the Jewish man in their basement. The major conflict of this book is pretty much Liesel stealing books from fires and the mayor's home, and she also steals food a lot cause her new family is very poor, but an even bigger conflict is the fact that they're hiding a Jew in their basement during the holocaust!! One prediction I have for this book is that the Jewish man Max might die in their house since he's very sick and hasn't woken up from a sleep in a really long time, so that would be very bad if some NAZI found a dead Jewish body in their home, but I feel like it might happen. I wonder how he got sick, and if he will ever recover? Also I wonder if he is going to get caught and get himself in trouble as well as the Hubermann family. This book can be connected to the movie based off of it obviously, but also it is kinda like a movie I watched in history about the holocaust becasue a lot of the clips from that movie about Hitler are mentioned in the book.
