Number the Stars Connections

~Here are some actual photographs to help connect to the story

 ~The photo above is of Anelise Platt who became of a friend of Lois Lowry's.  She was a young ten year old girl living in Copenhagen at the time of the Niai's Occupation.  I wonder if the author used the names Annemarie and Lise to honor her friend?
 ~These are actual young German soldiers who patrolled on Østerbrogade Street.
 ~The real King Christian X
 ~Kim Malte Brunn who shares many of the character traits of Perter Neilsen.

Treaty of Versailles

~This may help explain why Hitler came to power!  He promised the German people that he would reverse almost all parts of this treaty... and he eventually did... which led to World War II and the destruction of Europe's Jews and other minority people.... this war would lead to over 60 million dead from battery, and another 25-40 million civilians injured....
