When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit Quote

Title: WHen Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit
Author:Judith Kerr
Number of pages:191


  The book "When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit" is a autobiographical book that has many descriptive quotes that I really like. When Anna and her family moved to France, they were really excited to see the Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triumph and many other famous landmarks that are found in Paris. The quote that really caught my attention was on page 103. "Then she looked down. It was as though she was standing at the center of a huge sparkling star. It rays stretched out in all directions and each one was the road  lined with lights. When she looked closer she could see other lights which were cars and buses crawling along the roads, and immediately below they formed bright ring circling the Arc de Triumph itself. In the distance were the dim shapes of domes and spires and the twinkling spot which was the top of the Eiffel Tower." This is a whole pagaraph that is filled with fantastic descripiton. I think that this was my favorite paragraph from the begininng of the book. I loved the choice opf words the author used. While I was reading this I remembered my trip to Paris. The Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triumph during night sparkling like stars. In conclusion, I would love to read more paragraphs like this because of the description and choice of words the author used.
