Unbelievable~! .....

http://www.ushmm.org/museum/exhibit/online/phistories/

This link is all about the Holocaust and people’s real stories. Among them I picked Hiding section, I read it and I felt sad. A lot of Jewish children had to hide somewhere because Germans took them for work or they just kill them.
In this article, a woman who never go outside from the shack over two years when she was six years old. She just lived in the shack with her mom, she didn’t have anything to play and she didn’t have anything to eat sometimes. At that time, she always got nervous and starved. And a guy who hide behind some clothes in a bathroom closet. It was very dark probably and he also felt scary.
And other guy who need to hide his nephew in the suitcase when German was coming to their house. And he said that “You may not cry, you may not speak, and you may not say anything or shout because if you do….. Germans will take you and you will die.” At that time, his nephew was only two and half years old.
These people were so young for feel that feelings. These happenings are very sorrowful…sad….

Good information and link, Nayoung. I appreciate how much you are writing here -- and I am definitely seeing your English improve. I like how you focused on the children, too, in your topic. I think that is a particularly important topic for all of us to think about.
