Blog post 2 Elie Wiesel, Author of Night, Aged 12


Our English class is studying the memoir Night, by Holocaust survivor Elie Wiesel. 


I worked in a group with Pearl and Preslee to create an Empathy Map for Elie at this age.



Elie has a very religious life. He loved to learn about the kabbalah and the Talmud [The Jewish bible]
His father did not allow him to learn it as he must be thirty before learning the kabbalah . Elie would spend his days learning the Talmud and at night he would run to the synagogue and spend his nights there. Elie had a very strong and loving relationship with his family.
