She has a disability that keeps her from truly understanding what is happening around her. Without someone to help her, Marie-Laure would not understand the situation going on, or the seriousness of it. Even with the bombings and running away, Marie-Laure’s father shows to be a prowess character. He leads Marie-Laure and explains things in a mannered way so she would stay calm. Surely Marie-Laure feels like a child alone in a store, lost. Her blindness takes away the ability to truly understand what is happening in Europe. Thirdly, Werner is just as blind as Marie-Laure in his choice to go to the Hitler youth school. His sister Jutta does not think it is right for him to go to this school, but Werner believes he is special enough and does not see the wrong in it. Werner is so blindsided by the thought of learning more about what he loves that he does not understand what he is getting into. Werner thinks of the school as an innocuous chance to also get out of his coal-mining town. All Werner wants is to have his dreams come true and sees the chance so he takes it, no matter what it holds for
