Number The Stars

Dear diary
I’m so sad and scared . I feel like I want to curl in a ball . I just found out that the Nazis have a list of all the Jews . They have a list of all the Jews and where they all live and there names . I can’t belive they are doing this . It’s so mean and cruel . They are going to take my parents away from me. Even worse they might take me away . I don’t want to go away .
My friend Annemarie parents are going to hide me from the Nazis . I’m going to act like I’m Annemarie’s older sister but I’m
not really her sister. Her older sister died in a car accident before she got married . My name is going to be Lise for the Nazis because they would take me away if I told them my real name.

Peter was Annemarie’s sisters boyfriend . My parents went with Peter to hide from the Nazis . Me and Annemarie are really sad .
How can the Nazis do this to Jews? They shouldn’t be able to do this to us . I’m so scared that they are going to take my parents away . Annemarie’s parents are telling me my parents are safe but, I’m still scared. Annemarie is trying to consoul me and make me feel better but it’s not working .

I’m so sad and angry . They shouldn’t be able to do any of this . Jews are people just like the Nazis are . I just don’t understand ! ! They can’t do this to Jews !!! What if they take me away . What are they going to do to me ? What if they take my parents away from me ? All these questions are making me feel dizzy and sad . I hope they don’t take me or my parents away .

See you later ,
Ellen

That one present

I opened this big box
I see something fluffy
I start smiling with joy
I think I know what it is
I opened it
I cant speak
I started crying with bundles of joy
It was a North Face jacket
I didn’t know what to say I’ve been wanting one of these jackets forever
I hugged both of parents a bunch of times
I never took it off that day
