Explain why your questions are important to you. Tell the character what you've learned and how you feel after hearing their story. If you can relate her experiences to any conditions facing your generation, explain those connections. Describe for the character what you will do to teach future generations the lessons you've learned from studying the Holocaust.

Daniel`s Mother

I have learned many things this year about the Holocaust in school.  Daniel story is one of the best books I ever read.  Daniel`s story it talks about a boy who lived during the Holocaust and all the thing that really happened in the holocaust. I leaned if we do not learn about the past it will repeat it self so that is why i am writing this as if Daniels mother is still alive so i could ask her all the million of questions that are going though my mind. If  Daniel's  Mother was  still alive, I would ask her how she feels around Germans. I would ask her this because if I was her I would never be able to stand near a German ever again. how did she feel when her family was separated from her. The reason I would ask this question is because if I was separated from my family I would lose my heart ever.  Would you ever live in Germany again I would ask her. I would ask her this question because I could never live in Germany after all of that death of family and  friends. I would ask Daniels mother how did she live all these years living in the ghettos the camps with out any medicine or help from some one. I would ask Daniels mother this because at the end of the holocaust there were not many people who made it alive and the ones who made it alive die soon after ward because of all the diseases. The last and most important question is how did it feel to be free called your name not a number being able to go to a park a store and any were in public. I ask this question because if i was in a camp for that long of a time and made it to the end and had freedom I would thank good and go home and  walk around Germany and see hoe much the people and the place changed just because I'm a JEW.
