In my last blog of "Is It Night or Day", we met a young 12 year-old Jew girl, Edith. Edith is moving from Germany to America because of the terrible things that are going on in Germany 1938 , to Jews. And she will be doing this all by herself. Now that she moved from Germany to America, Edith has now have to fit in America. With school, friends,food,and jobs etc. Edith also worries about the larger issues of what she has to face and over come,but she also worries about every 12 year old girl worries about: clothes,boys,etc. When she is in america she writes a lot of letters to her parents and her best friend Mina. Mina soon replies back saying that in Germany its been getting worst for Jews. What will happen to Edith in america? Will she be able to get sponsors for her family? Will she be able to find her sitter in America?
In my book " Is It Night or Day", has a lot of themes in clouding, war, and life changes but one that really stood out was discrimination. I think that discrimination in the theme of my book "Is It Night or Day" because in the book Mina, Edith friends always sends her letters about what has been happening in Germany. For example she says "Your family was forced to leave your home in the village three weeks ago. Now they are living in an apartment building in Darmstadt with six other Jews from nearby villages, an SS guard watches the apartment day and night and sometimes the six of them must do work at local factories." This is important because it shows how in Germany its been changing since she left from America. It also shows how she needs to find money and sponsors in order to get them out of Germany before something worst happens.
Good job Cristina! Please make sure you are checking your writing. Capitalize American and make sure your commas are correctly placed within your sentences. If your theme is discrimination...what else? What about discrimination?
