Molching exists only in the book "The book Thief", it is not an actual city. But if it would exist it would be right near Munich on its outskirts.

Which part of the book book thief is realistic?

From what I've found, Molching is based off of the town of Olching, where there was an allied air raid as mentioned in the book. Hitler Youth was a real part of Nazi Germany, as were the death marches through German towns. Himmel Street comes from Himmelstrasse (the "Road to Heaven") the road to the gas chambers at the Sobibor concentration camp. I'm sure the Nazi party recruited men for war like Hans and Rudy, but you may want to verify that.


What is the book 'Thief' about?

The Book Thief is set in Molching, Germany during the time of World War II with Hitler and the Nazis, and focuses on a girl called Leisel, and her troubles growing up as a foster child who likes to steal and read forbidden books.

What are 10 good books for teen girls who like drama and not fantasy?

Airhead by meg Cabot is good for drama the Harry Potter books are ok if you combine fantasy and drama but Harry Potter is mostly fantasy. The best books I have ever read though is the Twilight Saga. You probably heard of it but it doesn't have much drama I personally think its good because as Robert Pattinson said you get so involved in the character's lives but the world around them doesn't change. If you have never heard of the twilight saga it is about a normal girl who moves to a small town to live with her dad and falls in love with a vampire. I highly recommend it.runaway twin:Thirteen-year-old Sunny Skyland feels all alone in the world, desperately clinging to the few memories she has left of her loving family. But when her mom and grandmother died in a car accident, she and her twin sister, Starr, were split up, and Sunny hasn't seen or heard from Starr ever since.Sunny's life hasn't held much love since she lost her family. One distant relative even abandoned her in an empty apartment. Following that, she became part of the system, bouncing from one foster home to another. Although the last two places were so bad that Sunny decided to run away, her current living arrangements are a vast improvement. She has been placed with a single woman named Rita, who seems decent enough except for her enthusiasm for healthy food. There's no junk food of any kind allowed in the entire house, causing a problem for the Twinkie-addicted Sunny. Despite that downside, Sunny can't help but start liking Rita. Still, she can't shake feeling somewhat incomplete and realizes there's only one thing that can change that --- finding Starr.One day, an opportunity presents itself for her to do just that. While walking to the store for a much-needed Twinkie fix, Sunny stumbles upon a bag of money. She does the right thing and advertises her find, but when no one claims it, she makes her move. Armed with a few supplies and the only photo she has of her sister, Sunny sets off across the country to reunite with Starr. She doesn't have much to go on --- just the name of their old town written on the back of the photo --- but she's positive she'll find the house where they used to live. Surely a neighbor will have some information that could lead her to her other half, becoming whole once more. Although Sunny is in no way prepared for this adventure she sets out on, facing many horrors along the way, she remains determined to find her only family.Unwind:Set in the future, the second civil war is fought over abortion. To end the war, a compromise is reached that ends the practice of abortion but creates an alternative called "unwinding." Between the ages of 13 and 17, parents or guardians can choose to have their children unwound, which involves having every part of their bodies harvested to be "donated" to another person so, technically, they don't really die. The complex and compelling plot follows three teens whose stories intertwine when they escape while on their way to the harvest camps. Fifteen-year-old Connor's parents can no longer control him. Lev, a tithe, was raised by religious parents for the sole purpose of being unwound. Risa, a ward of the state, is a victim of shrinking budgets since she is not a talented enough musician to be kept alive. Neal Shusterman's engrossing novel (S & S, 2007) is narrated in an even cadence and matter-of-fact tone that suits the author's straightforward narrative style. His wide array of voices makes the involved story line, which is left wide open for what is sure to be an interesting sequel, easy to follow. This gripping, thought-provoking novel is guaranteed to lead to interesting discussions about abortion, adoption, organ donation, religion, politics, and health care.The Book Thief:Zusak has created a work that deserves the attention of sophisticated teen and adult readers. Death himself narrates the World War II-era story of Liesel Meminger from the time she is taken, at age nine, to live in Molching, Germany, with a foster family in a working-class neighborhood of tough kids, acid-tongued mothers, and loving fathers who earn their living by the work of their hands. The child arrives having just stolen her first book-although she has not yet learned how to read-and her foster father uses it, The Gravediggers Handbook, to lull her to sleep when shes roused by regular nightmares about her younger brothers death. Across the ensuing years of the late 1930s and into the 1940s, Liesel collects more stolen books as well as a peculiar set of friends: the boy Rudy, the Jewish refugee Max, the mayors reclusive wife (who has a whole library from which she allows Liesel to steal), and especially her foster parents. Zusak not only creates a mesmerizing and original story but also writes with poetic syntax, causing readers to deliberate over phrases and lines, even as the action impels them forward. Death is not a sentimental storyteller, but he does attend to an array of satisfying details, giving Liesels story all the nuances of chance, folly, and fulfilled expectation that it deserves. An extraordinary narrative.
