Analysis Of The Devil's Arithmetic By Jane Yolen

What would you do if you went back in time to the Holocaust? “The Devil’s Arithmetic” by Jane Yolen is about a jewish girl named Hannah who is tired of remembering about her family’s past. In the book Hannah is transported back in time to the time of the Holocaust. Hannah is taken to a concentration camp where she sees and feels what the Jews had to go through back then. By the end of the story, Hannah learns the importance of remembrance and how it impacts your view of things. Remembering is important in this story and in real life because Jews must understand how important it is to know about your heritage and culture, they must remember the Holocaust and its victims, and how important it is to use your voice when lives are at stake.
