"Number The Stars" is a very intense book. Annemarie has a very troubled life when she was younger. She is moving from place to place avoiding danger from the Germans. This time period was taken place in the mid September and October in 1936. As well as this place she is in is Denmark, Europe. This was happening because Germans were invading Denmark to capture and kill Jewish people. How this was very difficult to see a little girl seeing her life change forever.
My reading strategies to this book was "Point of View". I'd say point of view because think if you were in Annemarie's shoes. When 5 soldiers talk to you directly what would you do? You'd probably freak out and maybe blurt out everything. As well as Mama's shoes when a soldier slaps you or maybe ask you questions you got to tell a lie because they will kill you. Maybe even worse, they could go to your family and kill them all. Point is, it is not easy telling a lie to someone who could kill you on the spot.
