Theme of "Number The Stars"

My review of this book is a very harsh life. Annemarie was very young when Germans started to invade Denmark. Meanwhile Annemarie is trying to escape and go to freedom. But Germans are everywhere and asking them questions of where they are going. Once they get to a safe place Germans start to wonder what they are doing at that certain area. More family of Annemarie is there. They are also trying to get somewhere safe. Annemarie's mother tries so hard not telling Annemarie what is going on.

I'd say the main conflicts of this novel is Man vs. Society and Man vs. Man. I say Man v.s Society because the Nazis do not like the Jewish people. Man vs. Man because Annemarie was scared for her life when Germans take away her things and laugh she tries not to yell or pout at them. These tell me the possible theme is "Never stand down, and keep your head up high". Because Annemarie never cries of what they do or did. So she keeps her head up high so the Nazis won't have a lot of fun crushing Annemarie's will.
