During the journey out of the small ghetto, Elie and his family cope by sticking together for support and relying on each other for strength. They try to remain hopeful despite the challenging circumstances, and they hold on to the belief that they will make it through together. They also try to find moments of solace and comfort in small gestures of kindness from each other.
Their Bible, photographs, a musical instrument...
One of the biggest ghettos in history was the Warsaw Ghetto in Poland during World War II. It housed over 400,000 Jews in a small area, leading to overcrowding, starvation, and disease before its destruction in the Holocaust.
A Ghetto is not a unit of measurement, they were as small as a few dozen people, and as large as 200, 000.
Yes people still held bar mitzvahs in the ghetto but they were very small and secretive so they wouldn't get caught.
Immigrants often brought personal items such as photographs, letters, and small mementos to remind them of their families back home. These items provided a sense of connection and comfort during their journey and settlement in a new country.

it was the way the map was drawn. It worked out conveniently as the non-workers, those considered too old or disabled were in the 'small ghetto' and it was cleared first.

The Warsaw Ghetto was sealed off from the surrounding areas, and in principle the inhabitants were entirely dependent on the SS for food and water. As the amounts allowed into the ghetto was wretched and inadequate, the Jews found ways of smuggling raw materials into the ghetto and then finished goods out. These finished goods were then swapped for food, which was smuggled back into the ghetto. There was at least one weak link so to speak in the walls surrounding the ghetto. The labour consisted of work on small workshops making such things as leather goods and clothing.
