They had been on the box car to the concentration camp for 4 days with only 2 stops, and she is dirty and bad smelling.

What inspired her to write this story was that her dad was fighting in those times and came home as a hero something that not many people could

Rivka was a little girl who had no parents or family with her, They all were exterminated in death and concentration camps. Rivka has been in the work camps for 1 year and she helps Chaya and her friends survive by giving them tips on what to do and not do. Without Rivka Chaya would have never survived.

Character Description for Hannah

Stern from The Devil' Arithmetic?

It is the story of a Jewish girl who goes back in time to a nazi concentration camp. It has very true to life graphic scenes. In my opinion it is age appropriate.

'The Devil's Arithmetic' was written by Jane Yolen .

Shmuel and Fayge are killed by the Nazis after Shmuel tries to escape. Yitzchak also escapes with them, but he gets away. Hannah/Chaya saves Rivka. When a Nazi comes to take 3 people to their death, he chooses Esther Shifre and Rivka. Hannah takes Rivka's hat and puts it on, going to Lilith's Cave for her. Out of the people who came with Hannah, only Gitl, Leye, Leye's baby, and Yitzchak, who escaped, stayed alive. Gitl and Shmuel live together in Israel after.
