Chapter 4

In this chapter, Elie and his father are moved to another camp, where they are forced to work in a warehouse . Elie's gold crown was forcibly removed by a cruel Nazi who had authority in this camp. The camps are being cruelly treated for no reason and a young girl is hung for no reason. The other prisoners are also being punished heavily for small offenses.
This chapter is a very inhumane, yet truthful view on how the Nazi's had become power-hungry and were practically playing with the Jews. It shows the horrific attacks in the camps and how the punishments shook fellow prisoners to the core. It is an example of how in veruy poor environments people can become mad with the slightest amount of power.

You retold the story pretty well without alot of detail. It was kind of short, but you had good insight about the chapter. Nice job.
