By: Markus Zusak
Historical fiction
How does the setting affect how the book turns out?
The Book Thief is a book about a girl that is having a hard life and gets adopted. They live in a town called Molching. The town is described as being a small town without much to do. This town is where Liesel meets most of her friends and she also likes to go down by the lake with papa they read books and papa plays his accordion.
It seams that the setting of the book affects how much of ww2 that Liesel experiences and how it affects her family.
I think the author wrote about a little girls experience on world war 11 because a child's experience can be different from an adults. I believe the author wrote on this subject because it was very easy to think of ideas on what could happen. This books genre was historical fiction the elements this book has is the nazis in the book would do things that the real nazis would do, and the reactions of people toward the Jews are what they would actually say. The intended audience is most likely young adults because it teaches about the struggles that a family would go through and what would happen to the Jews and there supporters.that is what I think the authors purpose of writing on this subject was.
The way the book affected me was it made me think about the struggles a family of Jews or a family harboring a Jew would have to go through. My thoughts about the book changed as I saw how the nazis treated everyone especially the Jews. I also got more interested in. How the other families and people thought about Liesels family. The book is related to my life in a way like my cousin has a pit
bull and he isn't aloud to let her roam about its like having a Jew in your house.that is the way the book has affected me.
I recommend this book to anybody who is interested in reading about a little girls thoughts about WWII and what would happen to the Jews and the people that
