The Nonfiction book that I read was about Hitler and the Nazis. But it was also about the child soldiers who had to fight in the war. And their stories.
One of my favorite stories in this book was about a child soldier named Herbert Norkus. I enjoyed his story the most because it was told in great detail. And at the end, after he died, it talked about his military funeral. I thought that was interesting because it also showed a picture of his grave with the guards around it. Besides that, the chapter talked about his wonderful services as one of Hitler's child soldiers. I also thought it was interesting how the chapter talked about his parents. And how they didn't want their son to join Hitler Youth. But Herbert joined it anyways because even though his mother didn't want him to, his father gave him permission. And in the end, he was shot, doing his job.
The other stories in this book were just about the same. They all talked about the children in Hitler Youth. And how their parents didn't want them to join it. But they disobeyed their parents and joined anyways. And they also all passed away and were killed.
