Lilo: Lilo is the main character of the story the Extra by Kathryn Lasky. She is about 10-15 years old; I don't know hew exact age, but the way the story describes her that is about how old the she is very brave because since she is a concentration camp, she should not be hiding because she can get killed, but she does it anyway. Also, she should not be talking to the men /boys, but she dose any way. Lilo is also very sacred because she has to transfer to different camps. Some of those camps are very dangerous. She doesn't want to go to a camp called Ravenbruck. In that camp you are a test subject for only women and girls that are the only ones aloud to go to this camp, this is so they can't have babies.

He helped out Lilo with her dad, and he also gave her fresh bread. He helped her out about information about all of the camps he has go to. I would say he is a lit friend to have. He is also a very honest person, and I would trust him; He is one of the Main characters from this book. Now that I am getting to know him better, he seams like a flirt and a joker. On page 51, Lilo said that she is surprised that he is not telling jokes. I would say that this character is about 10-15 years old, too. That is really all I know about this

    According to Chapter 4, Karen Horney “wanted to become a physician and became the first women to be accepted into medical school” (Chapter 4, pg. 106). Chapter 4 also mentions how, “Karen’s mother supported her decision and desire to want an education even though Karen’s father was against it” (Chapter 4, pg. 106). It appears to me that Karen Horney was a feminist, meaning that she strongly believed that women can be independent, have rights just like men and can be successful just like men. It appears to me that Karen Horney was born in the time-frame to where women did not have the same rights have man, were not independent or able to get successful jobs as men because they were considered a man’s job and women’s job mainly was to be a…

No one, especially not this girl, could ever guess what would happen to her next.…
