A Winters Day in 1939 - Overall Review

  

For the past two weeks Sanujan and I have been reading the stunning novel 'A Winters Day in 1939'. Reading this book we have been able to infer themes that can be found in the book and have developed the skill to understand the different vocabulary used in different pieces of writing. Our book was written to inform us as it is based on real events and it is explained thoroughly by a real persons point of view. To showcase our knowledge about Melinda Szymanik's book, we have told the story in another characters point of view, explain the reason for the writing of the book, and talked about two of the themes that are conveyed by characters in the book. I will give this book a 5/5 because I thoroughly enjoyed the book and the powerful messages the author has put into the book. She was also able to stay away from the political point of view during that time.
