https://padlet.com/collins_alyssa729/MAUS MAUS is a striking new take on a"classic" Holocaust work. It is on the edge of tale and adventure for the brain. The "life blood" of the book comes directly from the display of the character we travel along side the entire story. Learned, lived and loved this book. en-us 2017-05-09 20:55:41 UTC 2025-09-25 13:56:11 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/File.png collins_alyssa729 https://padlet.com/collins_alyssa729/MAUS/wish/170882895 He is a self conceded old man who doesn't take other's problems into account.

The yell for help and their mothers rush towards them. I'm disgusted by this scene because of the way people just automatically go after someone they don't know with full hatred. People just accepted the Hitler was right. ]]> 2017-05-09 21:24:26 UTC https://padlet.com/collins_alyssa729/MAUS/wish/170884513 collins_alyssa729 https://padlet.com/collins_alyssa729/MAUS/wish/170884545 The most disturbing part of the book to me revolves around the concentration camp.

He was very rude and prejudice against the African American who they gave a ride to. It just shows that prejudice exists among those who faced it.
