Prisoner B-3087
Prisoner B-3087 by Alan Gratz is about a little boy who has to try to survive the holocaust. The main thing that the author is trying to say in this book would be to survive at any cost. Yanek says that “I wouldn't have complained about brushing my teeth, Or taking a bath, or going to bet at eight o’clock every night I would've played more. Laughed more. I would have told them that I love them”(1). I relate to this text I do complain about these things and I know that I should not. The problem is I feel like I will just tell them tomorrow that I love them. In Yanek case, he did not have another day to tell them that.
This book agrees and clashes with the way that I see the world. This book agrees with the way I see the world because at the end of the book he gets to live. “I stepped on board the train and didn't look back. For nine years I had done everything I could to survive and now it is time to live”(250). This book also clashes with the way I view the world because the holocaust was sad and I did not want to learn more and more about it. Overall I agree with most of want the author is saying and it mostly …show more content…
Why had I worked so hard to survive if it was always going to end like this? If I had known, I wouldn't have bothered. I would have let them kill me back in the ghetto. It would have been easier that way. All that I had done was for nothing”(145). I agree with this text because I believe that if a person died they should be buried there but during the holocaust that didn't happen. The only part about the book that I might disagree with is when Yanek father and he went and got bread past their curfew. The reason that I disagree with this is because they were always talking about how other people would go out in the streets at night and they would be shot and killed right
