Zinger
In my book Ry which was Antoninas son said "'You know, Mother,'...'Szczurcio is learning how to open his cage. He's not stupid!'" (the zookeeper's wife 194) This quote from the book really surprised me because i wasn't expecting Antonina's son to talk to her like that and it caught me a little off guard.

You Create
My book is honestly so good because of the struggles that it exposes of the Zabinskis. I think that it really created good imagery of what was happening throughout the book and i don't think that a single person would hate it.

# data[].attributes.body
Xenophobia
During the book the Jews that the Zabinskis had been hiding as well as the Zabinskis themselves experienced Xenophobia due to the fact that anyone they encountered they thought would discover them and expose them.

Visiting
I will be asking Antonina my interview questions.

1.  What did it feel like to have your lifestyle ripped away from you?

I would ask this question because she did have her life ripped out from under her very abruptly.
2. What did it feel like sacrificing your safety for the hidden Jews while knowing that your safety could be compromised  at any moment?
I would ask this question because i havent been in a situation like that and i want to know is she wold be able to describe the feeling.
3. What was it like when your leg was infected during this time of struggle for you?
I want to ask this because i feel like having a infected leg would have been so draining and the fact that she was able to pull through was crazy.
4. what would you say was the hardest sacrifice for you during this journey?
Through out the book Antonina had to sacrifice many things and i think its is a valid question to ask.
5. Lastly do you think that you could have potentially been happy if you had ended up living in the villa after the war?
I know that before Antonina could move back into the villa she had passed away and i would want to know if she had given it time whether or not she could have been happy.

For the Nazi's to be able to do what they did to so many people they had to be as cold as ice.

Sensory
"After a rainy morning, thick cloud banks shifted and a warm October sunlight began streaming through as German soldiers patrolled each neighborhood, filling the streets with the clop of heavy bootheels and gabble in a foreign tongue. Then different sounds filtered into the lampshade store, more sibilant and transparent: crowd voices of polish men and women. Antonina saw 'one large organism flowing slowly' downtown and people trickling out of buildings to join it." (the zookeeper's wife 67)

Resolution
The resolution of the book is when Antonina goes back to the villa to see if she could ultimately return to it and live there again.

Quotes
"Here lived the wild, that fierce beautiful monster, caged and befriended"(The Zookeepers Wife 19)
This is my favorite quote from the entire book because it is in the beginning describing what the zoo was like before anything had taken place. It sound serene almost and it is so blatantly true because that is exactly what a zoo is.

# data[].attributes.body
Protagonist
Antonina and Jan are both the protagonists in The Zookeeper's Wife.
Antonina and Jan are both the protagonist because they both make their best efforts to try and do what ever they could to help and beat the Nazi's. They both contributed to saving the lives of many Jewish people.

# data[].attributes.body
Original
This book is similar to most of the other books about hiding jewish people but i cant say that it is very similar because none of the books that i have read about world war 2 have been in the perspective of a zookeeper or taken place at a zoo.

# data[].attributes.body
Narration
The Zookeepers wife is told from the perspective of the Zabinski's themselves in first person

# data[].attributes.body
Making personal connections
In my book he person that i related to the most was Jan because he fought for what he believed in even though he knew that if he got caught he would be killed and leave his wife all alone forever with his kids.

# data[].attributes.body
Lesson
A lesson that was learned from this book was the fact that one should never take what they have for granted and that if something doesn't feel right always fight for what is right in your heart.

# data[].attributes.body
Know

In what ways did Antonina sacrifice what she had during WW2?

Antonina has to give up many things throughout the book including her home, zoo animals and even having a happy marriage.

What did Jan end up joining during the war?

Jan ended up joining the resistance during the war because he did not agree with what the Nazi's were doing.

Why did the Nazi's take the animals from the Warsaw Zoo?

The Germans only wanted the purest most prized animals of the zoo to try and make the animals as pure as them.

# data[].attributes.body
Justify
I would recommend my book to anyone who is interested in WW2 based books. Honestly I love books that are based in the WW2 time and that really give a perspective of someone who experienced it.The book is probably one of my top favorites because it is from the perspective of non-jewish people that owned a zoo but were still somehow robbed of everything they loved. It gave me a new perspective and showed me that even those who weren't directly discriminated by the Nazi's still payed a price.

Heart to Heart
I am writing a text message to Antonina.
"Coming soon..."

Give an alternative ending
For the entire book in the end Antonina returns back to her home to see if it is still there. It survived the war but she doesnt think that she can return to her old life. But I think that she should ultimately try to forget the past and return to her old life and live it to her best ability.
