Liesel Meminger

• Liesel's desires are books! As a young girl who doesn't know how to read she has become fond of the concept of books.

Strengths

Strengths

• Her strengths were being able to deal with a new home and a huge death with in her family. As a young girl she had to become strong and mature at a young age.
• The biggest strength she has obtained is words. Liesel understood how powerful words could be but also had some conflict with them and at times she hated words.

Weaknesses

• To me, her biggest weakness is losing her brother. At any age losing a sibling could be come very traumatic and haunting. Let alone having her mom give her up.
• At being at age nine, I wouldn't blame her for being scared and sad. In all honesty I would too.

My favorite Quotes

• "Sometimes people are beautiful. Not in looks. Not in what they say. Just in what they are"
• "I witness the ones that are left behind, crumbled among the jigsaw puzzles of realization, despair, and surprise. They have punctured hearts. They have beaten lungs."
