Our English class is studying the memoir night by Holocaust survivor Elie Wiesel.
To find out what Elie Wiesel was feeling at this age I reread the first few pages of his memoir, Night.
At the start of the book, Elie was a young 12 year old Jewish boy living in Transylvania where he spent his childhood. Elie was a kid who believed strongly in his religion. Elie was deeply observant and noticed thing that most didn't. In 1941 he met Moishe the Beadle. Elie liked Moishe the Beadle's wide, dreamy eyes. During the day, Elie would study the Talmud, at night he would run to the synagogue to weep over the temple's destruction. He was a boy who believed strongly in his religion.
