In this novel, the traditions of the Jewish culture are very new to us. We don't have many Jewish classmates, so we don't really know and understand. We learn about the Seder and other traditions like hiding the "afikomen."

In order to understand the theme, we have to look at how Hannah changed over the course of the novel.  At first, Hannah was a typical teenager -- reluctant, obstinate and unappreciative of her family's history.  She was trying to get out of Passover to go celebrate Easter with her best friend's family.

However, after Hannah journeys to the past and endures the suffering of the concentration camp, witnessing the horrors firsthand, she truly changes.  When she returns to her own time, she realizes the pain and suffering is all too real.

The theme of the novel is to appreciate your family's history, to listen and remember, so the terrible events of the past cannot be repeated.
