The Light in Night- Blake Brockbank

Even though there doesn't seem to be much, there is light in Night. In the novel, the Jews continually looked for the good and light while they were being persecuted in the concentration camps. This is especially true about Elie, the author. They always looked for the positive no matter what. One example is how they were thankful for having their lives spared for the ones who were even though they were in concentration camps and were enduring hard labor. Elie and his father always seemed to be finding the light. His father was always encouraging his son to keep going and to not give up. He knew that if they didn't give up, they were eventually escape and be free. Because Elie didn't give up, this came true for him.
