The author uses symbolism to describe such a serious subject as the Holocaust because the book is aimed at children and young adults.

Eve Bunting´s story is a picture book for children. The title makes it clear that the main theme is the holocaust. However, the story itself is about the forest animals being subdued by "terrible things." They remain silent as their neighbors are taken away. There´s no direct reference to the Holocaust, but the story is a powerful reminder of such a dark historical event. Bunting is known for portraying serious topics in a way that is approachable to children and young adults.

Lastly, Dr. King's whole speech is <u><em>against</em></u> the violence that is occurring to the Negroes in their community, meaning he didn't want violence.
