1)The part in this book that I find most horrifying is when they shoot finci's dad. I think that part is mostly messed up because his world was already going bad and then he finds his dad and then they killed him right in front of him.
2) I think it helped a lot that he got the job of feeding the dogs because, He got to eat some of the food for the dogs and also he didn't have to use much of his strength to do this job. He could have had to dig and then he probably would have died.
3)The conditions at Bergen-Belson are horrible. They are having David carry dead bodies even though he is almost dead of exhaustion and hunger. Also they don't have any running water to the place so people are dying off really fast.
4)I think the biggest moment of triumph is when he met his sister's husband. I think that at that point he was super excited and you could tell because he ran up and gave him a big hug. Also I think he felt triumphed when he crawled out of the door and saw the red cross people.
5)I think That Middle schools, High schools, and Academies should make it a priority to read this book because, This book describes the horrors of the holocaust. When people read this book they will think twice about whining about not getting their way because he couldn't even get anything he NEEDED. So you can see why this is a good book for people to read because it will describe the horrors of the holocaust to them.
