What is the theme of the novle Milkweed?
A pocket-picking orphan who thinks his name is "stopthief" tells of his experiences during the Holocaust. The story begins when he is about eight years old. A redheaded older boy named Uri finds Stopthief and takes him under his wing, introducing him to a whole group of young thieves. Uri gives Stopthief a new name and makes up his background, telling him he came from a large Russian gypsy family and was kidnapped and brought to Warsaw. He told him to remember that he was not a Jew. Despite Uri's efforts to keep Misha (Stopthief's new name) safe, the Polish and German soldiers relocated both the Jews and the pickpockets to the ghetto. Food was scarce and the soldiers were cruel. Misha's small frame, quickness, and experience stealing came in handy for him and his friends. Each night he snuck out of the ghetto through a small, two-brick gap in the enormous wall that separated the Jews from the Polish. He brought back whatever food he could find and fit through the small hole. In this manner, he saved his friends from dying of starvation. Uri became a soldier and made sure Misha did not get on the trains headed for the concentration camps. Young and naive at the time all this was going on, Misha did not understand the gravity of the situation. His version of the Holocaust is innocent, cute, and horrifying at the same time.
