How life was for a Jew in Germany

On the website www.ujfpittsburgh.org (United Jewish Federation of Pittsburgh) you can find the Holocaust center. There is a page that explains how life was for Jews during the Holocaust (http://www.ujfpittsburgh.org/page.aspx?ID=148359), which I think can relate a lot to The Book Thief. "Hiding a child was much less difficult than hiding an adult. Unlike adults, children were not required to carry any forms of identification. In addition, they could easily blend in with the groups of non-Jewish children who became orphans of war." this is quote from the web page and it directly relates to the story. Max Vandenburg the Jew they are hiding explains his life story, as he does he said his mom hide him where no one would look before she got taken away. Also because Liesels family was not in the Nazi party they were looked down upon. Liked the Jews were in the ghetto's. From this website it gives more insight into how life was at this time period. And how Max acts and some of the things that might be coursing through his depressed mind.
