Augusta was only 4 her and her family moved from Vienna, Austria to Belgium. When the Germans invaded Belgium her and her family tried to esscape to France but where stopped at the bourder and sent back. Terrified her parents sent Augusta to a convent to keep her safe. Later her parents braught her back to stay with some christian friends a few doors down from their home, when father, aunte, and uncle where take from the house when her mother was shopping for milk. Escaping the raid her frightened mother took Augusta back to the convent and later joined her poising as a nun.
Augusta was brave to be able to stay away from her family for such a long time. It takes alot out of a child being away from the people that they love for long periods of time. She was strong by not giving up and just hanging on just a little bit longer each day. Augusta was a good child, and daughter by being strong and brave for her family and loved ones.
Wow how could one person stand all that. It would have been so hard for one little girl could have stand all that by herself. Loosing her father to the germans. Hiding all over not knowing what would happen to you. She even had her tonnsils removed without medical help.
ReplyDeleteNo medical help because she didnt wanst them to announce her to be a jew. So the nuns did it there selfes to pretect her from the germans.
ReplyDeleteI chose her to do my report on. I didn't know anything about her when I chose her. But her face, so bubbly and smiley. How could I not? She was a brave little girl.
