The main character is Annemarie and her family. They are trying to get the Rosen family to Sweden. The Rosen's daughter's name is Ellen. They are having Ellen act like she is Annemarie's older sister Lise who is dead. The place is in Denmark. This is happening when the German soldiers took over Denmark. The reason Ellen's family has to leave is that they are Jews.
Today we had a field trip. The thing that shocked me was how many families reunited with each other. Even though it was a very little amount of people who reunited. It made you feel sad to know that all of them died in the Holocaust. It was sad when we actually heard a survivor's story about what happened to her parents. They gave their daughters to a woman who helped them survive till they could be reunited with their parents. Their teacher did the same she had them hide when the soldiers came to the school. Their parents came back alive but almost starved to death in the worst camp. After she told us her story the people asked questions about if she was scared when she found out her parents were in the camp.
