The Other Side of Sandpaper

So here we are my fellow Book Thief readers - we’re advancing on the final chapters of Part 1.

• The first line of this chapter is a slammer; it really got me. “People have defining moments…especially when they’re children.” What has been YOUR defining moment thus far in your life? Does it, (or do they ), compare to Rudy’s ‘Jesse Owens’ experience or Liesel’s moments of hysteria?
• Hans soon finds ‘The Gravedigger’s Handbook’ hidden in Liesel’s sheets; How do you think Hans felt upon finding such a book in Liesel’s possesion?
• How would YOU feel if a secret of yours was discovered in such a way?
