Explanation:

Frau Hermann, the mayor's wife, is the kind woman who gifted Liesel a journal to write down her own stories. This journal became what is known as the "The Book Thief".

Frau Hermann allows Liesel to enter into the library and let's her read the books. Though she caught Liesel stealing a book from library at the beginning, she was kind enough to forgive her and let her use the library.

Summarize: At the end of the story, where is each character going and why?
Oxana [17]

Answer:

At the end of the story, each character is going to the roof because the entire building was on fire.

Explanation:

"Uprising" is a novel written by Margaret Peterson Haddix. The story is based on the true events of "The Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire."

The novel has three main characters– Bella, Yetta, and Jane. When the building catches fire, in the novel, everyone rushes towards the stairs to reach the roof to escape the fire. Some try to use escalators and some stairs. But the fire was fierce enough to consume everyone. The novel had only one survivor– Bella.

Therefore, each character in the novel is rushing towards the roof to escape the fire.
