Using the ideas on any of these FB pages, use characters from your novel to create your own FaceBook page. Use dialogue that represents what the characters would actually say.

__**1. Major Characters**__ -Liesel Meminger  -Death -Mrs. Hubermann -Mr. Hubermann -Rudy Stein __** Minor Characters **__  -Werner (affects Liesel because he is her brother and he dies. Deaths of loved ones always have big effects)  -Liesel's Mama (affects Liesel because that is her mom, and **mom's** are a big part of their children's lives) -Sister Maria (affects Liesel because she is her teacher in school and always yells at her for misbehaving) -Hans Junior (**Hubermanns** son; affects Liesel by coming to visit her and the **Hubermanns** every special occasion) -Trudy (**Hubermanns daughte**r; affects Liesel by coming to visit her and the **Hubermanns** every special occasion)

<span style="color: #ff6b00; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 13px;">2. I disagree with the decision of sending Liesel and Werner away to live with foster parents instead of their real mom. I disagree because I think that in this extremely scary time it is important to have your mom with you to help comfort you and just be there for you. You cannot have the same relationship with foster parents as you do with your mom. That is why I disagree with that decision in the story.

<span style="color: #ff6b00; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 13px;">3. This story really changes my thinking. It makes me think more about how someone feels when they are dead because the narrator in this story is death. It also makes me think more about what it was like back in these awful days. How terrible must it have been if you had to steal books! That is how this story changes my thinking.

<span style="color: #008000; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 13px;">We can't relate to stealing books since we take them for granted. They are all around us!
