LA Readers Response 3/23/11

The Book Thief
Part I

     The first part of the Book Thief is about how Liesel is taken to the Hubermann household because her mother wasn't healthy enough to feed both of them, and on the way her brother died, so she is having nightmares about her brother. Hans (the foster father) is really nice and comforts her every night when she has nightmares, but Rosa (the foster mother) isn't as nice, she's always swearing, at Liesel and Hans.
     Before now Liesel had found the book The Grave Digger's Handbook in the snow by her brothers grave. I think it is horrible and surprising that Liesel had never seen or read a book before, and that she can't read either! I could read when I was 4 years old! I can't even imagine not being able to read, all thing you wouldn't learn. I also think it is funny how all the great nations make sure only a few people can read, because they don't want to loose their power, we're so greedy sometimes.
