Why did Peter say the baby needed to stay asleep? (3-5 sentences)
Peter thought he needed to give something to the baby to sleep because he didn't want the baby to wake up and cry while they were escaping Ellen.
How do you know the packet from Peter to Mr. Rosen is important?
The packet from Peter to Mr. Rosen is important because it contains a crucial item that helps keep the Jewish refugees safe during their escape from the Nazis.
Uncle Henrik told Annmarie that it is much easier to be brave if you don't know everything. What does that mean? Do you agree?
Uncle Henrik told Annemarie that it is much easier to be brave if you don’t know everything, meaning that sometimes not knowing all the dangerous details can help a person stay calm and courageous. If someone knows too much, they might become too scared to act. By keeping certain things secret, it protects people from fear and helps them do what needs to be done. I agree with this because when you’re not overwhelmed by fear or worry, it’s easier to focus on helping others and staying strong in the moment, just like Annemarie did when she delivered the important packet.
