My favourite part is the part where
they were in Buna and the teenager and two people were hunged because of having weapons in the camp.If I were Elie Wiesel, I would stay in the sick bay in Buna and I can be liberated by the Red Army.

... Chee Hian how come post on 18 September?!? Oh well... my favorite part is the part when the the bombing part came and there was people at that soup thingy... If i were Mr Elie Wiesel, i would have stayed in the sick bay, too, like Chee Hian. And i give this book a 4.5/5 as the writer is very descriptive and is very boring at some parts...

My favourite part is when Elie Wisel kept lieing to the dentist that he was sick because he did not want his gold tooth to be extracted, and he had to kept coming back to the dentist,but after like 2or 3 weeks,the dentist had to be hunged as he was keeping all the gold tooth for himself.If I were Elie Wisel, I would not be as lucky as him .I would immediately let the dentist extract my gold tooth because I am afraid that if the dentist is lieing,I may be severly punished or even hanged ! I would rate this book 4/5 because there are many good vocabulary words in this book and the storyline is very exciting !

My favourite part in the book Night is when the dentist came and wanted to extract Elie Wiesel golden crown but had failed too because she gave all types of excuses in order to not take away its crown.But int he end,he was being capture but I think that Elie has alot of courage for her to actually lie to the dentist.Actually,to speak the truth I may be too afraid of the dentist and let him take away my golden crown.I would rate the book at 4 out of 5 because I think that they never they did not say more for the ending.

My favourite part is when the dentist wanted to extract Elie Wiesel's gold tooth, and he kept lying that he was ill when the, after 2-3 weeks, the dentist was then found out that he had been keeping the gold tooth for himself. If I were Elie Wiesel, I would not left my father alone, letting him die. I will rate this book 5 out of 5 stars even there was some parts that was about killing, there was many good vocabulary words.

My favourite part of the story is when Elie struggled to survive as his foot was frozen and the Germans did not give them any food. Even though Elie's foot was swollen, he still went out to join his father for the march to another camp. This shows that Elie does not want to be seperated from his father. The part where there was selection was also very funny as Elie ran too fast for the Germans to take down his number. If I were Elie Wiesel, I would elaborate more on the ending as readers would like to find out what it was like after the war. I would rate this book 5 out of 5 as it helps me to understand how difficult life was during the war.
I wonder what book Ms Loh is going to read to us next!

If I were Elie Wiesel, I would not abandon my father,instead I would:
-give some of my food to him
-help him when he was beaten up by S.S soldiers
-not leave him behind when he has no strength to run.
My favourite part of the book is where a boy took a piece of bread his father found before he died because I was very touched by the father's love for his son.I think the son was not filial as he only care about his own life.
I rate the book 3/5 as I don't really like it but it has quite a lot of good phrases.

i rate it 4.5 because its boring
at certain parts)

My favourite part would be when they were in Buna and when they were captured and brought to different camps.If I were Elie Wiesel,I would never let my father die even if he was going to.I didn't like the ending as it ended abrutly.I would rate this 4 out of 5 stars.

My favourite part is where he was staying in the sick bay as it is very interesting whether he should listen to the man to leae te sick bay or went out to join his father.If i were Elie Wiesel, i would do the same.If i didnt leave the sick bay, the Germans might come in and start shooting those in the sick bay as they did not need to use the invalids and they were useless when they are invalid. I would rate this book 4.5 out of 5 stars as it has a lot of good phrases and it is an emotional story but the ending is not as interesting as ''I had lived a thousand years''.

My favourite part of the story was when a man actually went to drink the soup in the pot even though he might have been killed. If I were Elie Weisel, I would give a more completed ending. I will rate the book 4 out of 5 stars.

my favourite part of the story is when the Elie Wiesel was whipped or slapped(I forgot wheter he was whipped or slapped)25 times.It serve him right for doing something that he should not do and no one knows what he did except the other Jews.I wished that he could tell the whole world what had happened.Anyway if I was Elie wiesel,i would not listen to that crazy, faceless fella as I could be liberated.I will also tell my father(I am talking about Elie Wiesel father)to act that he was sick.I would rate this book 3.5/5(Band 2)as some of the parts are uninteresting

My favourite part is when the dentist wanted to extract Elie's gold tooth, and he lie that he was ill and after 2~3 weeks,the dentist found tht he wanted to keep the gold tooth and the dentist also had to be hung.If I were Elie,I would escape earlier,I would not let my father die easily and I would care for him.My rating for this book is 4 stars out of 5 stars as the ending was not clear and if the ending was clearer,I would rate this book of 5 stars out of five stars.

My favourite part is when Elie Wiesel finally escaped from the suffering at the end as he survived many camps and he could finally take a rest. If i were Elie Wiesel , I should had saved my father and make him join me . But , nothing could be changed . I will rate this book 5 out of 5 as it tells us how lucky we are here and how the Jews survived under the Germans . There are several good vocabulary too .

My favourite part was when the German soldier threw the piece of bread into the carraige and just wanted to watch them fight over it. If i were Elie Wiesel, i think of ways to get my father pass the selection and not let him die at all cost.

My favourite part is when Elie Wiesel lied to the dentist about hm sick.He was smart though, lasting the extracting of the golden crown for very long. If I were him, I would do that also as the golden crown means alot.

Rating: 4 out of 5

My least favourite part of the story is when the Germans did not give the Jews any food to eat, trying to starve them.If I were Elie Wiesel, I would would eat half of whatever food I have and give the rest to my father.I would rate this book 4 out of 5 stars as the story is very exciting.

My favourite part of the story is when Elie needed to choose whether he wanted to stay at the sick bay or listen to the faceless man to go with his father.If I was Elie,I would have stayed at the sick bay,asking my fater to pretend that he was also sick.I would rate this book 4/5 as the ending was not clear enough.

My favourite part is when the germans threw bread inside the caravan because it was shocking to see so many people chasing after the bread. If I was Elie Wiesel I would have gone to another side and asked for a piece of bread rather than getting scratched everywhere just for a piece of bread. I would rate this book 5/5 as the story was very exciting at parts and they explained so clearly that we can visualize the scenery and the weather.

My favourite part is when Elie Wiesel gave a lot of excuses and lies about his gold crown.The dentist is hanged because of keeping all the gold teeth for himself. If I were Elie Wiesel, I will take care of my father(Elie's father)and not leave him on the ground to die.I will rate this book 4/5, for the ending should be more complete.

My favourite part is when three inmates, a teenager and two men, were found with weapons in the camp and were hung. If I Elie Wiesel, I would stay in the sick bay and ask my father to stay there too than we would be freed and did not need to go on the death march and my father may not had died.I rate this book 4.5/5 as the ending to me is not so proper.

My favourite part of the story is during the selection when he was worried if he was selected.If i were Elie Wiesel, I would not have abandoned his father and helped him to survive.I will rate this book 4 out of 5 stars.

The part which I like the most is the ending.It gives the story an eerie feeling and make us want to rack our minds and think what might happen next, or guess there may still be a seocond part of the story. If I were Eliezer I wuld stay in the sick bay and get liberated by the russians.
I would rate this book 4/5 as it is quite nice to read and have a lot of new words that I can learn.
If I was someone who likes to read about war, I would rate this book 5/5.But too bad that I don't like war recounts, and it does not have any moral values or points to learn from.

Oooops."seocond" spell wrongly.
