The story was mainly about Alicia Jurman's life during and after the Holocaust. In her life she had witnessed more trauma that we can't even imagine, such as her mother getting killed right in front of her. That's not all, her whole family was killed during the holocaust. Her family cruelly wrenched from her, Alicia rescued other Jews from the Gestapo, led them to safe hide outs. She was only 13 when she began saving the lives of people she did not know. After the war Alicia continued to risk her life, leading Polish Jews on an under ground route to freedom in Palestine.

Alicia Jurman- She was the developing character because as the story went along she had developed into a stronger willed person and also developed into the main character.

The Germans- The Germans had been the foil because they are the ones who tried to kill her. They had also been the main reason why she had so much grief and trauma.

c. What things happened that changed her?
