Turning Point


I think the turning point of this novel should be the death of her mother and grandfather. because first time that nobaby of her family get no pain of Germany, Johanna doen't hated Germany. but after her mother was died, she started became a bad mood. also after grandfather died, she really became a bad mood. So she started to hate Germany. so that reason, I think the turing point of this novle can be the death of her mother and grandfather.

Dialogue


Johanna:"Mom... wake up..."
Mom: "Johanna... sorry.. I think it can be last time...."
Johanna: "What you mean last time!?"
Mom: "Last time to see you.."
Johanna: "No.. Wake up Mom!!"
Mom: "..................."

In this dialogue the author show us the Johanna's mother died.
when I saw this dialogue, I almost cried. because, her mother was died that has no reason.
but the reason that she died is that borned from Europe and borned at bad period of time. so I also sorry for the people whose died cause of war. because if they didn't died, then maybe we couldn't living now.

Letters

Hi Johanan. I'm Joshua.
When I read this novel, I was thought that Nazi group. I learned about World War 2. also I learned about Germany. so that I knew how bad things they did and how they affected to other countries. I saw that your mother died. I thought about your felling and I felt that you will be so sad and you will be anger to Germany. I couldn't feel how sad it is when someone that I knew died. so I think I lucky and I felt you are so poor. but don't give up. and I saw you becoming have more hopeless. so I feel happy about that.
Bye From Joshua Youn

Personal
I never thought that I had experiment about this happen, because I never had experience about war. so I couldn't feel that main character had. but I learned Korean history, and I heard so many wars that Korean got. and also that Korean people felt. so older people hates Japanese people and Chaineses people. Also I learned about Germany(Nazi) in history class. and I also learned how they did bad things to other countries. so I thought I'm living in great period time. so I'm lucky person.

Soundtrack

If I make "The little riders" to movie, I will make movie very seriously. so for that I need very serious, and violently. First, I will chose music that start very slowly and quiet. and then the music have to be getting faster and faster. but I don't like the music that change fast. so the music have to change slowly but getting fast. Second, music have to be match with movie that shown. so when the Nazi killing the people or there are fighting, then the music have to be violent. but if the story is shown Johanna and people talk then the music have to be genuineness.

Writer's Craft.

This story is during the World War 2 in Netherlands. A young American girl, Johanna Hunter, is stranded in Nazi-occupied Holland with her Dutch grandparents in Kirkendam after her mother is killed. They are forced to house a German lieutenant, Lt. Braun, who happens to find his Captain's methods of psychological warfare disturbing but at the same time, wants to be a good officer. When the evil Captain threatens to destroy "The Little Riders" of the town's clock, the grandparents rally the villagers to save it. Derek de Lint plays one of the villagers who is in the resistance group. In this book there are many imagery. For example, Johanna was sitting on the brothel, she waited for listen to the bell rang from church's click.
