The Book I Stole. What Does It Say?

My New Mama and Papa

We stepped into this machine called a car. I had never been in one before. Mama made me come out after a while and after a few minutes, a tall man comes out. Next to him is someone I don't know. Next to him on another side is a woman who looks mad. Why am I here? I won't get out of the car. I don't want to. The lady says something and it takes me a long time to get out of the car. The tall man makes me. I then hold on to the gate. The mean lady says something else. The tall man has a white roll in his mouth. Smoke comes out from the end. Gray powder comes out and I try to touch it. Why am I here?

My Brother's Burial

I dig. My hands are cracked with frozen blood and snow is carved into my skin. He can't be dead. I fall to my knees; my time has come. Mama came to drag me away from my brother and I scream. Mama then lets go and I see something. It's black and shaped like a rectangle. I can't really see it-it's covered in snow. Mama doesn't see it. I go to it and pick it up. It has silver squiggles on it. What do they mean?

The End to My Old Life

I am freezing. There is my brother, laying down on the cold earth, dead. Mama is crying, but I can not do anything. Tears freeze onto my face. He's gone. He's really gone. My body continues to shiver as the three guards give us cold looks. We can hear them chattering in German and I'm scared. What will they do to us? My stomach growls. All I can do is hope.
