Liesel and Rudy sell the goods they acquire from Otto for food and other necessities. Rudy justifies the stealing by believing that they are taking things that the Nazis have stolen from others, and it is a way to survive and fight back against the unfairness of the situation.
It's difficult for Liesel to love Rudy because, although he did always tease for a kiss, Liesel just saw him as a friend. When Liesel found Max at the "parade" and they got whipped, Liesel did want a kiss. But her desire could've caused many conflicting emotions she didn't want with Rudy. Therefore, that scene in the book explained that Liesel just wasn't ever ready to confirm that she loved Rudy.
Rudy Steiner is Liesel's best friend in The Book Thief, known for his loyalty, bravery, and playful nature. They first meet when Liesel arrives in Molching and Rudy offers her a teddy bear to comfort her. Their friendship grows as they bond over thievery, sports, and their shared experiences during World War II.
Yes, of course she does! Why else would she kiss her best friend at the end of the book? She also had fantasies about him in the months before he died. Terribly sad, though as he doesn't get the kiss he always wanted from Liesel, until he was dead.
The main characters in "The Book Thief" are Liesel Meminger, a young girl living in Nazi Germany, her foster parents Hans and Rosa Hubermann, her friend Rudy Steiner, and Max Vandenburg, a Jewish man who hides in their basement. The story follows Liesel's experiences during World War II as she finds solace and courage through the power of words.
Liesel and Rudy wait for the right moment when no one is around, then quickly grab the food basket and run before anyone sees them. They use their quick thinking and teamwork to successfully steal the food.
Rudy asks for a kiss once in the book "The Book Thief." It is a memorable and pivotal moment in the story between Rudy and Liesel.
The Hubert Oval is the place where Liesel and Rudy raced near the beginning of the book. It is also where the Jesse Owens Incident occured.
I don"t entirely buy this. Liesel is a nickname for Elisabeth- to use the Continental spelling. Liesel is a character in (Sound of Music) I saw the play as a kid- did not like it- nothing to do with Yule ( though some songs which seem to allude to gifts (My Favorite things) have been taken up by the Yule music types) Who is Rudy? the Reindeer? curiously Rudolph Diesel invented the engine bearing his name- there is rhyming slang Liesel and Diesel! Liesel Bach was a German aviatrix who died some years back of natural causes. I don"t think she is the girl you are looking for. it is strange indeed.
In "The Book Thief," Rudy Steiner is not a part of any street gang. He is the main character Liesel's best friend and admirer who shares her passion for stealing and reading books. However, there are mentions of other characters, like the leader of a local gang, but they do not play a significant role in the story.
There was a bombing on Himmel Street and unfortunately Rudy was killed. It was only when he was dead that Liesel kissed him. It's so sad :"(
Courage: mental or moral strength to venture, persevere, and withstand danger, fear, or difficulty. In the book the "The Book Thief", set in Germany during the Nazi army and air raids back in late 1930 to early 1940's, Liesel Meminger she shows many acts of courage. In the book she shows her courage through the acts of stealing books and finding her passion. Liesel stole for the good of her and others. Liesel stole her first book when her brother pasted away. During his burial a young grave digger dropped his book, "The Grave Diggers Handbook." Liesel picked up the little book, and this was considered her first act of stealing. She held on to the book not because she liked its contents, but because it reminded her of the last time she saw not only her brother but also her mother. After moving in with her foster parents, and learning how to read and write, she started to steal books from the mayor's wife. With the first book, it was one that belonged to her mother. But after the thrill of going in and stealing the book, this would not be Liesel last book stealing incident. Of course she never really got away with the true act of stealing. She was never the less caught every time. The mayor's wife knew that she was being stolen from, but found it rather entertaining. Liesel during air raids would read these books that she "stole" from the mayor's wife to the kids and adults in the basement shelter. Later in the book Rudy and Liesel would go to farms and steal food. Of course during this time no one really had an abundance of food. But not only in the physical aspect of thing is Liesel showing courage but also in the fact that she stays strong and level-headed throughout the book. She shows she can remain a positive adolescent. Some of the benefits of showing courage in the book they all come a little closer and tended trust each other more. From hiding a Jew in their basement, to Hans keeping Liesel's secret of stealing books. Everyone in the book shows courage. Rudy didn't care what others though when he wanted to hang out with Liesel in school. Max took a leap of courage walking back to 33 Himmel Street. Han's showed great courage when walking back in to a war for the third time in his life. All of this gives one benefit in the end; they all were closer than two peas in a pod. They all could trust and rely on each other. Know that no matter what everyone had everyone's back. Courage is important to the overall meaning to the story because, it shows that the main character, Liesel is a lot stronger then than average girl. She goes through many losses, and separations. She shows strength and bravery, when most people would have lost all hope. She learns to fight for what she believes in and stick up for all the wrong things for all the right reasons. Liesel and Rudy demonstrate courage when they hand out bread to the Jews when they parade through town like Han's did. It also shows that it may be easier to overcome your fears and help others. Courage is the biggest part of this book because it's something we can all not only recognize but also resonate with. Everyone in this book shows courage, bravery, and strength
