Or had he dreamed it? He wasnt 11 used to the sounds of this new flat, the smaller one he 12 and his family had been forced to move into. They 13 couldnt afford their old place, not since the Nazis told 14 Josefs father he wasnt allowed to practice law anymore 15 because he was Jewish. Josef tried to relax. Maybe hed just been having a 18 nightmare. Screamed in sheer blind 25 terror. She was only six years old. Josef cried. The air seemed 2 to crackle around them like static from a radio.
Josef 3 tried to hide in the corner of his bed, but shadowy hands 4 snatched at him. Grabbed for him. He screamed even 5 louder than his little sister, drowning her out.
He kicked 6 and flailed in a panic, but one of the shadows caught 7 his ankle and dragged him face-first across his bed. Josef was so scared he wet himself, the warm 10 liquid spreading through his nightclothes. Josef screamed. Another shadow 13 picked up Ruth by the hair and slapped her. The shock shut Ruth up, 16 but only for a moment.
Then she wailed even harder 17 and louder. Hush, Josef begged her. He took her in 19 his arms and wrapped her in a protective hug, refugee alan gratz pdf download. Hush now. The shadows tore down 23 pictures, pulled drawers from their bureaus, and flung 24 clothing everywhere. They broke lamps and lightbulbs. They threw Josef and Ruth on the 2 floor once more and flicked on the overhead light.
As 3 Josefs eyes adjusted, he saw the seven strangers who had 4 invaded his home. Some of them wore regular clothes: 5 white shirts with the sleeves rolled up, gray slacks, 6 brown wool caps, leather work boots. More of them 7 wore the brown shirts and red swastika armbands of 8 the Sturmabteilung, Adolf Hitlers storm troopers. Mama cried when she saw them. She 12 lunged for her children, but one of the Nazis grabbed her 13 nightgown and pulled her back.
For this crime against 18 the German people, you will be taken into protective 19 custody. If youd 22 just give me a chance to explain 23 The Brownshirt ignored Papa and nodded at the other 24 men.
Two of the Nazis yanked Josefs father to his feet 25 and dragged him toward the refugee alan gratz pdf download. He had to do something. He leaped 2 to his feet, grabbed the arm of one of the men carrying 3 his father, and tried to pull him off. Two more of the 4 men jerked Josef away and held him as he fought against 5 them, refugee alan gratz pdf download.
Look at this one! He struggled in the mens arms, trying to break 11 free. Ill be a man soon enough, Josef told them. Ill 12 be a man in six months and eleven days. Refugee alan gratz pdf download months and eleven 14 days! Not that hes counting.
Perhaps 16 youre close enough that we should take you to a concen- 17 tration camp too, like your father. Mama cried. No, my son is just twelve. Hes 19 just a boy. Dont take him! Josef watched 24 as they dragged Papa away to the sounds of Mamas 25 sobs and Ruths wails.
Well come for you soon enough. They 2 left as suddenly as they had come, and Josef and his sister 3 and mother huddled together on their knees in the 4 middle of the room. At last, when they had cried all the 5 tears they could cry, refugee alan gratz pdf download, Rachel Landau led her children to 6 her bedroom, put her bed back together, and hugged 7 Josef and Ruth close until morning.
Other 13 Jewish homes and businesses and synagogues were 14 destroyed all over Germany, and tens of thousands of 15 Jewish men were arrested and sent to concentration 16 camps. They called it Kristallnacht, the Night of Broken 17 Glass. But Josef and his mother and sister werent 21 going anywhere. Not yet. Not without Josefs father. Nobody would tell her anything, 25 and Josef began to despair that he would never see his 26 father again.
A telegram from Papa! Hed been released 3 from a concentration camp called Dachau, but only on 4 condition that he leave the country within fourteen days. Germany was his home. How would they live? But the 7 Nazis had told them to get out of Germany twice now, 8 and the Landau family wasnt going to wait around to 9 see what the Nazis would do next.
The 9 cat was hungry, just like everyone else in Cuba, and its 10 belly quickly won out over its fear. Isabel 15 said. Its fur was scraggly and dull, and Isabel could feel 16 the cats bones through its skin. The little kitten wasnt 17 too different from her, Isabel realized: thin, hungry, refugee alan gratz pdf download, and 18 in need of a bath. Isabel was eleven years old, and all 19 lanky arms and legs.
Her brown face was splotchy with 20 freckles, and her thick black hair was cut short for summer 21 and pulled back behind her ears. She was barefoot like 22 always, and wore a tank top and shorts. Isabel wished she had something else to give it, 25 but this food was already more than she could spare.
Her 26 lunch hadnt been much bigger than the catsjust a few There had been 2 rationing and food coupon books when Isabel was little, 3 but a few years ago, inthe Soviet Union had fallen, 4 and Cuba had hit rock bottom. Cuba was a communist 5 country, like Russia had been, and for decades the Soviets 6 had been buying Cubas sugar for eleven times the price 7 and sending the little island food and gasoline and medi- 8 cine for free.
Most of the farms in Cuba grew refugee alan gratz pdf download sugarcane, 11 and with no one to overpay for it the cane fields dried 12 up, the sugar refineries closed, and people lost their jobs.
All the cows and pigs 16 and sheep had been slaughtered and eaten. People had even 17 refugee alan gratz pdf download into the Havana zoo and eaten the animals, and 18 cats like this little kitten had ended up on dinner tables. Youll just be 20 our little secret, Isabel whispered. Ivn said, refugee alan gratz pdf download, making her jump. The cat 22 skittered away underneath the house. Ivn was lighter refugee alan gratz pdf download than Isabel, with 26 curly dark hair.
He wore sandals; tan shorts; a striped, 27 short-sleeved, button-down shirt; and a cap with a fancy. He wanted to be a professional baseball 2 player when he grew up, and he was good enough that 3 it wasnt a crazy dream.
Ivn gave names to 9 everythingthe stray dogs who wandered the town, his 10 bicycle, even his baseball glove. How about Jorge? Or 11 Javier?
Or Lzaro? Isabel said. The Lions was the nickname of the 15 Industriales. I need your 17 help in the shed. I have to go. Were building. Ivn thought he was being 21 sneaky, but Isabel knew exactly what he and his father 22 were building in their shed, and it wasnt a doghouse. It 23 was a boat. A boat to sail to refugee alan gratz pdf download United States. Fidel Castro, the man who ruled Cuba as presi- 26 dent and prime minister, wouldnt allow anyone to leave The north.
If you were caught 3 trying to leave for el norte by boat, Castro would throw 4 you in jail.
