Number the Stars

Reader reviewed by asassin spongey

This book is very good in the way that it shows you the how bad the holocaust. I think this book could be better in a way that it could have been longer and show more fighting and gore.

This book was about a girl named Annemarie and all the courage and bravery she had! I could never be as brave as her. I feel bad for the Jews in this story because they were treated really bad. I am glad I was not alive in that time because I would be so scared and frightend. I think that all of the German soldiers wre out of wack to kill inisent people like Lise. I think Elen had a lot of courage because she new she was in danger but did not let it show that she was scared. I was suprised how Lise died and sad how she died too. When Peter got killed I felt really bad because he was part of the family. I really want to know when or will Ellen will come back to Denmark. This book needs a sequel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Did Ellen's family reach Sweden? Did they get caught? If you want to know, then read Number the stars.

Ten-year-old Annemarie Johansen is living in Copenhagen during the time of World War II. The Johansens are Germans who are very good friends with the Rosens. Ellen Rosen is Annemarie's best friend and also a Jew. She soon finds herself involved in sneaking the Rosens out of Copenhagen when the German soldiers are coming after all the Jews and she is forced to find out what bravery really is.
This is a touching novel that is educational as well as it is entertaining. It reminds you that there were some people who escaped the wrath of the Germans during the war and there are always good people willing to help. It's powerful and moving. A great book that all school libraries should have.

This was an O.K. book. It talk a lot about the Holocost It should not be read by people under the age of 9-10.This book is pretty sad so some people should not read it (like my mom).

I think this is a pretty good book. It's about a girl and her best friend Ellen. It's
1943 and the Nazis are relocating Jews.
Annemarie must protect Ellen with her life
along with the help of her parents and her
little sister Kirsti.

I thought of this book of an O.K. book. It was not interesting until the very end... it had too much history in it and personaly i like fantasy books with mythical creatures and all of that. And i like fighting in wars and stuff. Even though this book is about a war it has no fighting at all and that is what i enjoy to read. but if u like history and no fighting of any sort u may like this book.
