Number the Stars

Copenhagen, 1943. Ten-year-old Annemarie Johansen’s footrace ends at two soldiers’ rifles — and her ordinary childhood ends with it. When the occupiers move against Denmark’s Jews, her family hides her best friend Ellen behind a dead sister’s name, joins a funeral for an aunt who never existed, and sends one small girl running through dark woods with a lunch basket on which everything depends. Lois Lowry’s Newbery Medal winner (1990) turns the real October 1943 rescue of Denmark’s Jews into the finest introduction to courage a classroom can read. These 8 Part workbooks cover the full novel (17 chapters + Afterword), with vocabulary, comprehension, literary analysis, Think Deeper reasoning, SAT & TOEFL-style practice, and writing, all built on real-world CLIL background.
