This book made me feel sad because Liesel’s dad left her to be in the army. He was forced to join. I felt really bad for Liesel because Hans, her father, was very close to her. She liked him better than she liked Hans better than her adoptive mother. Liesel’s mother, who rarely shows any emotion, showed that she missed her husband. I feel that Liesel and her mother are now alone because Max and Hans left.
I was really surprised that Rudy was sent to fight for the Germans. He had an interview, in which I thought he failed. Rudy dies because Germany was bombed and he couldn’t escape. This made me feel really sad because he was so young.
