The book I am reading is called No Pretty Pictures a child of war by Anita Lobel. Anita is the who writes the story. She talks about her past of when she lived in the times of World War II. She went through a lot back in those days. Her father escaped to Russia when she was little. Her mother was still with her but she just hid her background and got false papers. Pretty much all their years, before Anita and her brother were found, they were mostly with their Nanny (Niana). For five years, they traveled a lot with her to many places. Niana was the only person who they can put their trust on because she tried her best to keep them both safe from the Nazis.
While I was reading this book I thought about the signpost 'Tough Questions'. Anita asked herself the question 'Is Niana really going to come back?' frequently. This made me truly think about how bad Anita wished she was with her nanny. It made me wonder how on earth was Niana going to cope with the thought of the two kids being stuck in a concentration camp. How did Niana really feel deep inside? Although it seems impossible that Niana would come back to them, I could predict that she would have done anything and risked anything for them.
Great job finding a signpost and analyzing it! Keep up the great work!
