Annemarie accuses Uncle Henrik of lying to her about Great Aunt Birte because she never accepted the idea that the family's elderly relative had emigrated to the U.S. Instead, Annemarie learned the truth about what happened to Great Aunt Birte during the war when she visited Uncle Henrik and his family at their seaside home.
Jews, who pose as friends of Great-Aunt Birte show up at the fake funereal.
The name of Uncle Henrik's boat is called the "Ingeborg"
If the soldiers had discovered that the packet for Uncle Henrik in "Number the Stars" contained Ellen's necklace, it could have put Ellen and her family in danger as it would have revealed their connection to the resistance and potentially led to their arrest or worse. Uncle Henrik may have also faced repercussions for his involvement in the resistance.
This... is... sparta!
Henrik is Mama's brother, and Annemarie's uncle.
Mrs.Johansen tease her brother[henrik]because, Henrik didn't marry.
The Germans would've taken the Rosens and the other jews who where trying to flee to Sweden and probably do something horrible to uncle Henrik.
The german soldiers came to uncle henrik’s house because they saw that a lot of people were going to his house, so they were suspicious and thought that there were jews in a hideout.
When Mr. Rosen falls, he drops the package, but doesn't realize it. Annemarie runs it to Uncle Henrik. Later, Uncle Henrik explains that the package was a heinkerchief coated in cocaine and dried rabbit blood to mess up the German K-9s sense of smell when they tried to sniff Ellen out. She along with her parents and other Jews were concealed in a hidden compartment. Ellen made it to Sweden. The book doesn't say what happened afterward.
