Milkweed Updates

 ~We are almost finished reading Jerry Spinelli's masterpiece Milkweed.  Sadly, Mrs. Milgrom has perished due to typhus. Olek got caught smuggling and was hanged.  Mr. Milgrom, Uncle Schepsel and Janina were all forced onto the trains during the liquidation.  All of the boys that Uri looked out for are gone.  We can only hope that they fled the ghetto.  Finally, Misha was shot by Uri...his father figure.  Did Uri shoot him out of hatred or out of mercy?
