These chapters were about this girl names Laurie and her friend Amy. Laurie and Amy are best friends that go to the same school. Laurie is te editor of the school paper and Amy is her friend. Laurie and Amy both have good marks. The setting of this story so far is in the school right before history and during history. Laurie and Amy are in the paper room and the bell rings. They go to their history class. The history class is taught by Ben Ross, a young new teacher with interesting teaching techniques. Ben is showing the class a movie. The movie is about Nazi Germany, and the concentration camps. During the movie Ben was talking about the Nazi’s and Amy and Laurie were quite disturbed. After class people were asking questions, so Laurie asked a question. Ben did not have an answer to the question so after school he went to the library and got lots of books about Nazi Germany.
My thoughts and ideas are mixed about this book. It seems interesting but the cover and description of this book make me wonder about how the story will actually unravel. Based from the cover alone my thoughts are that maybe he came up with a “fun” experiment and then he made all of the kids so obedient like the brown shirts. The things I like about this book is that The characters are actually real because this is based on a true story, but that kind of freaks me out in a way because if my prediction happens in the book that means it had happened in real life at some time.
