Why do you think Peter is always in a hurry? I bet it's more than Lise's death that keeps him so quiet. |

MESSAGE:
To Justin: No we haven't, but we would like to though. We think it is very sad that one man got an army just to kill people who don't follow the same religion. Have you seen any pictures of people in concentration camps? They were skin and bones. We are doing research projects on WWII? I, Ashley chose concentration camps and I, Spencer am doing the bombing of Pearl Harbor. Are you doing any? |

MESSAGE:
To Krista: We agree with you. We would be very scared if we were Annemarie & the soldiers were talking to us. We would have been totally speechless. It makes no sense stopping innocent people walking down the street and questioning them. I think the German soldiers are weird to do what Hitler says.Taking the lives of 6 million Jews is stupid. We don't know what was in their heads but it was wrong and we have something to show for it. |

MESSAGE:
TO: CORY I like this book, too, because it's amazing how those people survived through WWII. I don't think a lot of the German soldiers were just taking orders. |

To: Justin I have read a lot of books on this subject. It's a really interesting subject. I study WWII and it is fascinating and I think that the Nazis were nasty people. |

MESSAGE:
To Sunnie, I agree because little Kirsti doesn't like the soldiers and she yelled at them. I think it's interesting that the soldiers didn't yell back at Kirsti. When the soldier said little Kirsti looked like his daughter Kirsti yelled at him. I'm enjoying this book so far. |

Hey Justin, I've read a few books which the people who are hiding are telling the story. Also we wrote about what you would do if you had a friend where will you hide him/her in today's life. I would hide them in an attic that is in a closet. Think about it. |

MESSAGE:
to: Justin I agree with you but Number the Stars reminds me of a movie I saw called World War II The Persecution of the Jews. There were some pictures that showed Jews bombing bridges that Nazis were driving over. |

MESSAGE:
To Sunny, Hey Sunny, I agree. If the soldier did that to me I would push his hand away and instead of yelling I would say in my firmest voice, "Don't!" I would also be scared if I was Annemarie and do what Krista said. |

MESSAGE:
to: Cory I agree, this book is very good. I like it because it's a true story and because I think World War II was very interesting, but sad because people died. Guess what? My grandfather was in World War II and he was captured by Germany during the war, but he found a way to escape, and he is still alive today. I've only read the first two chapters of teh book and I think this will be one of my favorite books. |
