is the weather good for fishing?

Mr. and Mrs. Johansen, Annemarie, and Ellen try to strategize. After the soldiers' visit, they're all in danger, and they know it.Ellen apologizes for her hair color . and Mrs. Johansen mention Lise. Ellen and Annemarie can't go to school  it's not safe. Instead, Mrs. Johansen will "take the girls to Henrik's" . Although it seems riskier for Mr. Johansen to stay behind, they finally agree that it's actually a better way to keep them all protected. While Mrs. Johansen gets their stuff ready, Annemarie explains to Ellen that Henrik is her uncle on her mother's side.  . They have to be careful, even on the phone.So Ellen, Annemarie, Kirsti, and Mrs. Johansen take the train over to Henrik's. On the way, the girls enjoy looking at the scenerya nice break from all the scary stuff that's been going on.But sure enough, they're interrupted by a pair of soldiers who stop to ask the four travelers what they're doing. Mrs. Johansen says they are taking a trip to see her brother. The soldier asks if they are traveling because of the New Year, and Mrs. Johansen acts like she doesn't know what he's talking about.Yep, he's testing to see if they're Jewish.Kirsti speaks up, which freaks everyone out. Annemarie and her mother are worried Kirsti will spill the beans about what's really going on. But Kirsti just wants to talk about her shoes, and the soldiers seem charmed by her. Once again: .Finally the ride is over, and they get off the train. They decide to walk through the forest to Henrik's house. Along the way, they talk about all sorts of things, from castles to Mrs. Johansen's childhood dog that used to meet her after school. They eventually get close to Henrik's and Annemarie is allowed to go on beyond the others.


"It is much easier to be brave if you do not know everything". 

What this quote means is that when Anne Marie finds out what is happening, it is much harder for her to be calm. She now has to worry about what will happen to her family and to her. Besides, she no longer feels safe as she had felt before, this is because she no longer has the confidence in herself to be calm or brave enough. 


" The whole world had changed. Only the fairytales remained the same". 


When Anne Marie mentions this quote, she is referring to everything she has been through. This happens when she is faced to the real world and to all the violence she is been exposed to. Because of this, her quote represents fading of hope and it is a clear symbolism of her thoughts towards her life experience and her new lifestyle.
