In The Book Thief‚ Hans Hubermann would be considered a best friend to me because of his courage. One way he shows courage is through his action of giving bread to a Jew. The text states‚ “The Jew stood before him‚ expecting another handful of derision‚ but he watched with everyone else as Hans Hubermann held his hand out and presented a piece of bread‚ like magic.” (Zuzak‚ 394) This shows courage because Hans is willing to take punishment by helping people who don’t have anything.
