Final Post

1. For this book i think the most disturbing and sad part was when they toture Romek. By beatin him, putting a hot metal stick from the fireplace into his lefy eye and ripped out his tongue. Which i think was really hard to read but also really sad to read and hear about from David and the book.



2.He pours the coffee and serves bread i believe. He goes through the time pretty well until some other person get's his job. And the boy who took his job knew him and he ask's for extra food and coffee and he said no and other mean thins. So he didnt talk to him. A difficulty was when there was a group of little kid's get sent to the coal mine. And David goes as the translater because he's fimilar with many languages because of his mom. I think that was the best camp that he stayed in because he had 4 friend's and they stuck together. And Finci helped him get extra clothing's that David sold to get more food. And he was really smart by keeping bread before him and the other's left that camp.



3. At the last week's of the war there was no more soup and people were eating the flesh of the dead bodies. He got really weak and got Typhus like the doctor that he met. And he met Chaim who ended up being left behing because he never tell's them to come back for Chaim. And it was the hardest and walking wasn't a choice for him because he was so weak.



4. I think he thought it was all a dream at first which he did. I think he also knew he had to survive that's why he crawled to the sidewalk because he promised his mom that he would live and i think he was just so proud of him self because at times he wouldn't of made it but he got lucky. Which is good and i think that even though he really didn't say it i think he was very happy on the inside.

5. I think that it should be read by every middle and high school because it's sometihng that was tragic history and kilt alot of people. We read Martin Luther King's speech and other things that changed the world. The Holocaust happened during World War 2 and it reduce the amount of Jewish people in the world. They totured and killed people just for being different and then people who werent Jewish but stood up when they thought it was wrong were stuck as Kapo's which were people who leading the captured to many places. Some Kapo's were even killed for being so cruel and broke a rule and became one of the Priosner's and ended up dying like Kapo Potok. I think that it's necessary to read but i dont reccemend it to Elementary school's because alot of tragic things happen and they just might not understand all the content. But it's a big part of our History and even though it's kind-of disgusting but it's something that young kid's could learn from. Some people think they have it hard now but what the Nazi's did was worse. Way worse.
