2 things: Why was this the first book that made me cry?
Why was Mahmoud's father beaten up.

Some people like the kids were unaware of it, they only played without caring otherwise. but on the other hand the adults were upset about it and some people like Josef, attempted to turn the boat to America.

# data[].attributes.body
Lito was the Cuban police officer in Josef's story

# data[].attributes.body
He was a police officer on the st. Luis he felt bad because he couldn't let the Jewish people go off board. and so Lito sacrificed to go back to cuba so his family can go to el norte, using himself as a distraction. "Mañana, we said. We'll let you in Mañana. but we never did"

Not well because the angry crowd was rioting.

# data[].attributes.body
why did they let mohamad leave

# data[].attributes.body
First i agree with jonathan this is sad.Also why where there UN people there in the first place?

# data[].attributes.body
Different because the kids did not care but the adults don't want to go back to hitler.

# data[].attributes.body
It says that he felt bad for what he did after and he sacrificed for isabel and them to go to america and "Manana, we said. We'll let you in Manana. but we never did"

I would describe mahmood has unbroken and visible.and for his father broken,and scared.

Why did Waleed all of a sudden become like, he was aware of everthing, and he seemed to enjoy thw alk.

# data[].attributes.body
the kids don't care the adults don't want to go back to hitler

Well, when some of the ship heard they are going back to hitler, they tried to take over the ship, so they would go to another country besids Germany.

I agree with ben

# data[].attributes.body
they went crazy

# data[].attributes.body
it means he wants to make up for his past

# data[].attributes.body
i would describe mahmoud as more aware, as for his father, snapped

# data[].attributes.body
what snapped waleed back into place?

# data[].attributes.body
It means he regrets his disicion. They are in the same situation, so he wants to make up for it.

# data[].attributes.body
I would say that Mahmouds dad, well, since he was beaten, he was kind of broken. Mahmoud I would say is determinded to get to Austria.

# data[].attributes.body
why in mahmoud's story do they not want them to leave even though they dont want them there???

# data[].attributes.body
Lito

# data[].attributes.body
someone peopled rioted, some people stayed calm, someone people took action

# data[].attributes.body
the kids didnt care really the adults wanted change and some people were sad.

# data[].attributes.body
Going to jail and being beaten, broke his soul.

# data[].attributes.body
it probably means he had a bad past and wanted to make it up to everyone. kim's quote is really what i would've used.

# data[].attributes.body
mahmoud wants to try to make the best out of it and his dad as mahmoud said "And now his father was dead inside too."
