Here are three things I learned about when I went to Holocaust websites:
1. A Danish resistance movment along with ordinary citizens freed 7, 200 Jews and took them to Sweden, where they would be safe. Click here to read the story.
2. The Holocaust was in 20 European countries!
3. The Slobadka Ghetto made a yearbook of the year 1942. THis includes how many people were killed daily, and their laws and boundries. To see this yearbook, click here.
This connects to "The Book Theif" because it during that time. When we get deeper into the book, the story will talk more about the Jews. I find when I read these survivor stories, that many people made friends that helped them along the way. Liesel had three friends like that; Mama, Papa and Rudy.
