This genre is a journal entry from the perspective of one of the main characters, Ellen Rosen. Ellen is a 10-year-old, Danish, girl who lived with her family during the German occupation of Denmark. The Rosen family is Jewish and had no choice but to hide from the German soldiers if they wanted to survive. Ellen was sent to live with her best friend, Annemarie Johansen, and had to pretend to be part of her family while her mom and dad were in hiding. Towards the end of the novel, Ellen was reunited with her parents and, with the help of the Johansen’s, was able to escape from Denmark to freedom in Sweden.

This journal entry is from Ellen, the day her and her family arrived in Sweden. It highlights her experience, her emotions during that terrifying time, her current fears of what her future holds and what her new life will be like in Sweden. This entry demonstrates historical empathy because it helps readers understand how Ellen was feeling during the time and how her experiences influenced her newly developed fears and emotions.

I wonder where  peter hid the Rosen family?

I think Peter hid Ellen parents at the Denmark place where Annemarie's mom used to live near Uncle Herrick house .I think Ellen's parents didn’t go to uncle house right when Ellen got there because if they went to early without distraction they will be caught by solder.Maybe that's why uncle Herick made up a story saying AuntBurti is dead.

“...Like the other family in their buildings the Johansen had opened the old chimney and installed a little stove to use for heat when the could find coal to burn. Mama used it too , sometimes for cooking because electricity was rationed now... “ page(18) chapter3

This reminds me of  the movie of the “Lost Boy Of Sudan” , because Peter and santino were in the same circumstances as annemarie and mama they did not have food and they lost their families , houses etc because of the war and the had to ran away to survive and look for food.

I wonder why they had the jews personal; information on the synagogue ?

I think they have the jews personal information on the synagogue because the jews is so small that the pastors might want to keep his people safe.I also think the  name is on the synagogue because if they don’t come to the church often then the pastors will know they are in danger or sick .Then pastor will keep them  in pray.

“ Annemarie went to peter and gave him a hug and she said “ we will see you again soon”? And peter said , “ yeah i hope so very soon don't grow much more  or you'll be taller than i am” (chapter 11 page 92) this reminds me of when my dad had to go to california to play baseball it was 9 years ago ,  he had to leave me and my whole family and it was hard for all of us and he said almost the same words as peter but in spanish , 1 year later he came back because he had a fracture on his back and he couldn't  play baseball no more.

Where did Annemarie hide Ellen necklace ?

I believe that Annmarie hide  Ellen necklace at Lisa trousseau because no one opens Lisa trousseau except Annemarie. I also think Lisa  trousseau is safe because if they open it it will remind of Lisa so they always keep it closed .

Uncle Henrik and Annemarie were talking about why did Mama and Uncle Henrik lie to Annemarie.

# data[].attributes.body
“Uncle Henrik” Annemarie said suddenly, her voice cold, “ you're lying to me. You and Mama both”

“He looked at her again, his deep blue eyes kind and questioning. You are angry,”, he said.”

“Yes. Mama has never lied to me before. Never. But I know there is no Great-Aunt Birte. Never once, in all the stories I’ve heard, in all the old pictures I’ve seen, has there been a Great-Aunt Birte.”

“How brave are you, little Annemarie?” He asked suddenly.

“Not very,” she confessed, looking at the floor of the barn.

“I think that is not true,” Uncle Henrik said. “I think you are like your Mama, and like your Papa, and like me. Frightened, but determined, and if the time came to be brave, I am quite sure you would be very, very brave.

“But,” he added, it is much easier to be brave if you do not know everything. And so your mama does not know everything. Neither do I. We know only what we need to know.

“Do you understand what I am saying?” He asked, looking into her eyes.

She began to understand, just a little. “Yes,” she said to Uncle Henrik, “I think I understand”.
