“Flower in the Gutter” by K. R. Gabby, this book is the true story of the Edelweiss Pirates teenagers who resisted the Nazis. I recommend this book to people who want to learn the true story of World War 2. This book was about three teenagers-Fritz, Gertrud, and Jean-they were different, but they are similar on fighting against the evil. They were Germans living under Hitler’s control, and in any time they might get aressted or killed. As children, they saw their parent taken away, and the toy store on the street getting robbed. Their parent were all heros that fight agianst Nazis in the street, and when they gorw up they became their parents.
This is my central idea page, in this page I recorded central ideas, themes, and social issue in this book. Mostly about Nazis treating badly to the Gremans and how teenager should fight back for theirselves.
The central ideas, themes and social issue is hard to find, because this book mostly non-fiction, but for the whole book it is mostly talking about how Fritz, Geruds, and Jean survive through the whole book. They need to survive from the bombs and also from Hitler, Jean saw his friends killed infront of him, war used to be countries to countries but in World War 2 it is the whole world against Nazis.
In this lesson, I was researching about the Nazis, and Ms. E told me about the Nazis party and find a website talking about it, it recorded the number of people killed. I immediately think of this page where it talks about Jean thinking he will die soon. I wanted to quote the sentence, “You’ll be under grass soon!” but when I read clearly through the whole page I found that the whole page can be related to the Nazis Party since both were talking about Nazis killing people.
This page is for rereading the part that you feel confusing or seems to be related to central idea or parts seems to be connecting to earlier parts. I write the sentene down and give some explaination for it.
This is the page when we are learning cuase and effect. A sentence to explain the cause and effects. And a mind map to show the cause and effects when they are on the train trying to escpae form Germany.
