~We are almost finished with Number the Stars by Lois Lowry! Our goal is to finish by Friday. We learned how many Danes tricked the Nazis to get the Danish Jews to Sweden. We learned that Great Aunt Bertie died...... but the casket was empty! We also learned how the Danish fishermen rigged their boats with fake compartments to get the Jews across the Kattegat to Sweden. This group (the 2011 Apes) has probably enjoyed this novel more than any other group of Apes. The Rosens and Johansens are not safe yet...they encounter more drama tomorrow!
