Summery and Notes and notice.

So far in the book Karina and Rita are talking and Karina says how she kind of feels bad for the jews. After this some one tips off the Gestapo and says that there is jews in the area. The Gestapo comes to Karina's house in the middle of the night. When they get here they are the ones that stand out the most because Hans hit Karina's father for interfering with the search. Hans comes backs and find the whole in the wall. Karina says it is her own little study room for hitler but he doesn't fall for it. He leaves to get other Gestapo members. Karina's father tells them to pack their things because they are leaving. They leave on bike and the book ends their.

For my Notes and notice, I chose aha moments. I chose this because there was a really big aha moment when Karina realized that Jews aren't bad and terrible. When Karina had her aha moment there was sort of a build up to it because slowly and slowly she would see that they aren't bad, Until she decides to go in the room behind the wall to play with Rachel. The aha moment was when Karina gave a bag of crayons to Rachel. Rachel asked if they were for her said if she is not lying in Karina responded

"Of course why would I lie to you" Her moment of clarity is when Rachael responds to this question-

"Because you don't like jews." This is when she probably thought to herself "Jews aren't even bad, they are just like us and not the enemy and due to my lack of knowledge Rachel thinks I don't like her." That was her biggest aha moment in the book.
