Illustrator
The first illustration I drew presents Janina’s silhouette
while see was getting kidnapped by the Nazis. It started with Janina noticing
her family in a boxcar, heading to the concentration camp. When she was running
towards the train wagon, a Nazi worker rushed her to the wagon too. As the
train was leaving, Misha “saw” Janina’s silhouette flying, being free. He
wondered if she is happy because she’ll see her family again. This moment of
the book was extremely touching, because he realized he was alone again. It
showed how people can attach to others in a really short time. He loved his new
family, and now he was about to lose it.
The second illustration shows the two main characters sad
and crying because of their friend’s death. In the picture you can spot Olek
hanging from the lantern. I chose to draw this as the second illustration because
it truly shows the situation during Second World War and what kids had to go
through. Losing a colleague in this age is extremely depressing and
unfortunate.
I'm sorry for my bad drawing.
