My perspective of the Nazi soldiers by Bella
I think that the Nazi soldiers are very mean. To me tracking people down if they have a different religion is very mean! The Nazi soldiers have no right to storm through peoples houses and towns looking for Jewish people like Ellen`s family.

My perspective the Jews leaving on Uncle Henrick`s boat. By: Kyleigh
