About book Prisioneiro B-3087: Baseado Na Vida De Ruth E Jack Gruener (2013)

I really liked the book Prisoner B-3087. It is a book about a young Jewish boy named Yanek Gruener and his large family who lived in Krakow, Poland in the 1940's. During the time they lived, the Nazis were taking over the Jews because they didn't like the Jews by their differences and by how they were. I think that is not fair. Yanek and his family had been hiding so the Nazis wouldn't take them and kill them slowly by the inhumane, terrible things they had prepared to end the Jews. I thought the Nazis would just kill the Jews but instead they made them work so they could suffer to death. One day Yanek saw his parents marching with other Jews that have been caught. Soon he too was taken away to the concentration camps where hundreds of Jews died every day by the lack of daily needs and by abuse. When Yanek and the other Jews arrived at their concentration camps, they got prisoner uniforms and were told the rules. They got tattooed numbers as their identification. Yanek got B-3087. Yanek saw one of his family members but his happiness vanished when he found out that the rest of his family was dead. Soon Yanek was alone and while working, Yanek had memories of his past stolen life. Years and years past and the prisoners travled from concentration camps to concentration camps in cattle trains, marching in harsh weather with just wooden shoes, thin cloths, and no food. Yanek faced challenges but kept surviving. I think he is a strong, determined person. One day the prisoners were rescued and Yanek was free and goes to America to start a new life. I actually really liked this book. It's about a kid named Yanek, he liked school, his family and his friends. At first Yanek and his family got away with hiding in a pigeon coop, but soon after they were dragged to go work at camps. Eventually they got Yanek and at his first camp he found his Uncle Moshe, but soon realizes the rest of his family were dead. Each day Yanek kept on getting weaker and weaker, since they didn't feed them much. Thorough the whole story the Nazis treated them pretty bad, I mean you couldn't talk unless they told you to, or if you wouldn't get up in the morning they would beat you until you did, but if you didn't they'd just shoot you in the head, they even treated animals way better. I was pretty surprised honestly on how so many times Yanek got so close to death and he lived. He lived by remembering he was someone, but yet he was no one, his memories and his future. I think this book taught me how lucky we actually are and just how we take things for granted. I think the sign post helped look at the story and understand it more clearly. I guess I would say this would be okay to do some other time. And really, I don't think I'd change anything, I liked the books, and that we got to choose our own. So yeah, I'd do it again.
