    1. I don't think they had time to dig because there was a war around them

    2. They didn't have enough time because a war started near them and they had to go away so thay did not die.

    3. They did not have enough time to dig a hole for the casket because the war was going on and they did not want to die so they just left the casket there and ran to the river

  3. I want to talk about the part where maria's family hid jews. I thought it was a smart idea but also not because she could get in deep trouble from the nazi's. They could have been killed from the nazi's, how did they not know thye were hiding jews when maria was taking out food to them for 2 years. She made 6 trips within the whole day. What do you think? Pg 13-23
