Number the Stars

Over the last three weeks, our class has read a book called Number the Stars. The main character of our book was AnneMarie. She wanted to help her friend Ellen and other Jews escape from the Nazi soldiers during World War II. We think you should read this book to find out what happens to Ellen and some of the Jews. 
You may also want to read this book because it is filled with emotions. You will read about a war, a funeral, escape plans, and secret meetings.

We would like to read that book. It sounds very interesting and is something we are not familiar with. Miss Bontrager is going to try and find it for a read aloud. Thank you for sharing!

We would like to read that book too. Do you think we can borrow it? We are reading a book right now that is a biography. It is about a girl that has polio and is paralyzed from the neck down. This book is also full of emotions. It is called Small Steps by Peg Kehret.
