Abigail Kolk’s Reviews > The Cage: A Holocaust Memoir > Status Update

Riva is completely lost and without her family.

the children’s friends are being sent to concentration camps.

food is becoming impossible to find.

a social worker came to the family’s house and said they will have to be separated and live with families because they are not old enough to live on their own.

The family is really struggling to find food and are becoming hopeless.

Riva isn’t getting the nutrition she needs and she realized one morning that her legs no longer work and she cannot walk.

the mother of the family in the book was taken from her home by the nazis and carried away in a wagon, leaving her children alone without any parent.

The Germans are getting more violent and are going after women and children.

The book is currently going through the childhood of the main characters life and how she lived through the holocaust. She was beaten on the streets as an innocent child.
