Numbering the Stars

Numbering the Stars is about a girl named Annemarie and her family trying to save her best freind Ellen and her family from the Nazis since they are jewish. They did everything they could. They pretended that Ellen was Annemarie's sister so theat the Nazis wouldn't supect her. Then they found out the the Nazis wouldn't invade Sweden. So an antiNazi underground were smuguling jews into Sweden. Almost all of Annemarie's family was part of the undergroud. Especialy her older sister and her fiance. Unfortnly they were killed. Still they were able to smugul Ellen and her family to Sweden because Annemarie was able to get the special cloth to her uncle.

I really liked this book. It was sad, but it was a happy ending in the end. They were able to get Elen and her family to Sweden. Still it was sad that Annemarie's sister died and Peter her fiance was murdered. He even asked if coule get buried next to Annemarie's sister,but he didn't so that was sad. Also it was sacry when the Nazis caught Annemarie running to get the cloth to her uncle. Still everything turned out alright.
