The Hubberman

        Imagine a certain time where there was a lot of hate, for having more territory or because they wanted to feel superior. The Book Thief gives a vision of someone who loves reading. Marcus Zusak gives a brief story of a little girl that suffers a lot. This book might appear boring but it's the best. In my opinion it's one of the best books I have ever read.
        This book setting happens in Germany in a time where it was really poor country. I refer to the time when Hitler the Nazis had control over the country. In this period of time is when World War 2 was happening. Almost all Germany had lack of resources and was a really poor country. This book setting plays an amazing role in this story.
        Liesel arrives to Munich in Himmel Street. Where some wonderful generous persons called Hans and Rosa Hubberman adopt her. She meets a lot of people such as her love Rudy,Max and others. We might think she's in the right place, in the right moment to live a wonderful life. Something we don't know know is that she's going to loose the people she most loves. This story is amazing.
        The authors purpose was to show what World War 2 caused. To give us an image of how Germany was. Also to show us that a lot of families died. During this period there was actually a lot of conflicts going on. 
        I didn't know this book was going to be an amazing story. My first thought of this book was that it was going to be a boring book,but if you actually read it you will notice its very interesting. I learned to not judge a book from its cover. I really encourage you to read this book.
