Annmarie inspires me because she is a true friend, her best friend is in danger and Annmarie puts herself on the line for Ellen. That must tell Ellen that Annmarie would do anything for her. I Think that was very Inspirational of Annmarie to risk her own life for her best friend,Ellen.
Thanks! I wonder if I could do that? Do you think you could do that? It would be pretty freaky to know there might be a soldier right behind you at any time.
Ellen inspire me because she is being very strong in a very sad time for her. German soldiers are trying to take her and her family away,and she has to be separated from her family.
Peter inspires me because he is nice, sneaks out after curfew without being noticed, gives presents to people, and he delivers De Frie Danske because he is part of the resistace.
I think Annemarie inspires me because when Ellen her best fried who was Jewish was sleeping over for safety reasons she helped get Ellen's Star of David necklace off of her neck when she Heard the Nazi come into her room. Annemarie held it tightly in her hand until the Nazi left her apartment, she held it so hard that when she let go of it a Star of David imprint was on the palm of her hand. Annemarie inspires me the most in Counting the Stars.
Hi Nicole! How are you? After learning more about the Holocaust this year, you really begin to realize the things that people had to do to be safe! What Annemarie did for her friend Ellen really was inspiring!
There are 2 people who inspire me. One is King Christian (even though he is not that big in the book), because he looks over his people with care, and everybody loves him. He is so brave over the Nazis! Another is the teenage boy who told the German soldier that all of Denmark is King Christian's body guard. That boy told him so proudly, and he was brave to do that!
Hi Taylor, I really like how you have King Christian as an inspiration...it is so true! The teenage boy is a great idea too; it's very admirable how he will stand up for what he believes in! -Margo Bush [I'm Jackie Bush's sister:) ]
Two people inspire me. One is Annemarie because she is a loyal friend and is very motherly and protecting to Ellen. Also this might sound a little silly but Kirsti inspires me because she is not afraid to share her thoughts or opinions and even though the world isn't so great right now she still thinks of happy things.
Hi Sarah and Madeline! It is a great thing that you both think Kristi is inspiring, she really is! Also, think about what a true friend is to you. Would you do something so dangerous for a friend just like Annemarie did for Ellen?
Annemarie inspires me because she will risk her own safety so her friend can be safe. She also has bravery and love, those are a few of the many things that keep her strong.
In Number the Stars, Annemarie inspires me because she is willing to risk her life in order to keep Ellen safe. Her brave actions show loyalty to her friend and courage during a very scary time.
In the book "Number the Stars", I am inspired by Annemarie because of her actions towards her best friend Ellen. She risked losing her life to save Ellen from the Nazis.
These are really good examples of inspiring people from Number the Stars! Someone that inspires me is Mrs. Johansen because she risks her life to help the Rosens escape from the Nazis. She always tries to be positive, even when everything around them is going wrong. Peter also inspires me, because he tends to be a leader to the Johansens, and is very brave sharing news with them about the war.
Yes that's good! And it is important to have a character like Peter in the book to make the reader more nervous about them getting in trouble, which makes the story more interesting.
That is an interesting answer, very intelligent that you picked that up. It shows that you recognized that distinguishing people because of race or anything else is very wrong. Good!
Annmeria inspires me because she fights and takes a stand against the Germans.She is willing to fight for her friend.Rights to be a Jew and not be killed or taken away.
Hello we have the same name! Anyway I agree that what Annmarie did was very brave to help her friend like that! That probably took a lot of courage. That is true inspiration.
AnneMarie inspirers me to being brave in difficult times and to be true to my self. Quotes that make sence for the story (When there is evil, good will rise up against it) (Even in the darkest of times light will shine again)
Annemarie inspires me because even the smallest can do the largest of things. Like, in a fable and the mouse helped the lion. And it taught that the smallest can do the biggest.
That's so true. Also sometimes you don't know how much you mean to someone. Even when you are doing a something small you don't know how much you mean to someone.
I am inspired by peter cause he risked his life to give news to the Danish people.In this time of need if he could not do that the Ellen's family will be hurt cause Annmarie"s family when Ellen's mom and Annmarie's mom had their so called "Coffee" by the window she some times tolled her the news.
I am inspired by Peter because he help Ellen's parents escaped from the Nazies and gave beer for Annemarie's parent and newspapers.Treat Annemarie,Kristi,and Ellen like sisters even though he never got to marry Lisa after the accident.
