First Pages


In english class I am reading a book called Night by Elie Wiesel. This book talks about the holocaust, is a story of a young boy that survived this massacre. He was really young when he was in his house with his jewish family and they were send to a concentration camp. It is really amaziong how he tells the story since he was a little boy and how he showed the trust that he had on his religion. In the first 20 pages he starts to introducing himself and his family and Moshe the Beadle. Moshe the Beadle is a homeless man that lived in the same neighborhood, he helped Eli in his studies. Moshe was taken by the Germans and had escaped, he teaches all of the jews of the neighborhood that the Germans where bad people and that the concentration camps where really bad. Time passed and the Germans whent to take him and his family to a concentration camp. they where took in small wagon to become refugees of the war.
