April 18
In the first chapter of Night I learned a bit about Elie's life. He grew up very religious and learned from Moishe the Beadle in the town of Sighet. Soon his ways changed when WWII threatened his entire life.
Soon the Hungarian police forced restrictions on the people. All Jews in the city were sentenced to living in ghettos until their time to get sent somewhere else. Elie's father even showed weakness among all the strife and Elie started to lose hope.
The first chapter was full of hard facts and suspense. I think it is a good start for the book and kept me reading. It really showed me the truth and difficulty of Jewish life during WWII.

Hey. i like the post. a little short on details from the story, but it gives you a good idea of the power behind it, which is more important anyway
Hey Tim I think your post is great. It is a little short but its the quality that counts. It think you get a good idea of the book in your summary.
Thanks for your comment! Your post was a little short but otherwise your content was really good. It gives you an idea of what Elie is thinking.
Good posting. You might want to consider incorporating pictures or video in the blog, because Mr. Folmer is grading on creativity as well as understanding of the content. Other than that, really good job.
