In the book, The Devil's Arithmetic by Jane Yolen, at the extremity of chapter 11, Hannah starts to have memory loss.

With these factors. It's showing why knowing her what is happening is crucial. By having her memory, it will avail her survival in the camps.

In the beginning of The Devil’s Arithmetic a song that would represent this part would be “Wake Me Up” by Avicii. In the story, Hannah did not understand the importance of why Jews do what they do. Therefore causing her to act how she does in the beginning. The song represents not being able to understand the world around them, which is demonstrated through some of the lyrics. This relates to the book by showing the connection of mis-understanding certain scenarios.

The Devil’s Arithmetic: a gruesome equation of addition and subtraction, a mix of human numbers, a reviled combination of death and life. There are several denominations in presenting the story of Hannah, similar or different they may be.

Guns. Pain. Blood. Tears. Regret. These words represent a mass genocide. These words represent the Holocaust. The Holocaust was a mass genocide of the European Jewish people caused by Adolf Hitler and the Nazis. The destruction of the Jews began in Germany and eventually hatred towards Jews was spread all over the world. Over 6 million Jews died in the Holocaust and constantly people were injured. The central idea of the Holocaust was that it had a negative impact on most people who were involved. The theme of the Holocaust is all people should be treated fairly and humanely. During the Holocaust, Jews were treated unfairly and the genocide had a negative impact on the people involved.

I remember when I was in the eighth grade, the entire class was assigned a project revolving around the Holocaust: each rotation of classes brought us all into the next level of this month-long project. In one class, we made scale models of what we thought would be a proper shelter for hiding in and in another, we read Holocaust era literature, such as Anne Frank’s Diary and Eli Wiesel’s Night. In what was normally our History class, we watched and read The Devil’s Arithmetic. Written by Jane Yolen, the story follows that of a young girl whose family is experiencing Passover. When showing her disinterest in the event, she is transported to Auschwitz during World War II to learn the importance of her heritage.

Remembering the past is important, your past is how you got to where you are now. The past has helped shape who you are today. Although you can help change your future, the past is unchanged you can never change the past, the past is something that will always be with you, and it’s part of who you are. When you can’t remember the past you will have a hard time preparing for the future. Remembering is important for Jews, and non-Jews because when you stop remembering your past you start to lose your identity, and can’t learn from yours, or others mistakes.

The devil's arithmetic book by Jane Yolen and the movie by Dustin Hoffman are very similar to each other. They both tell the story of a young girl who is transported through time to the 1940’s to learn what it’s like to live through the era of the holocaust after she ignores her family heritage. She then dies in that time at the hands of the Nazis and learns why she must remember and tell the future generation about the holocaust. These stories are the same but told in different ways and in different forms.

The book tells the same story as the movie but in a different way it cuts out thing the movies has or the movies adds thing that's not in the book. The book has some not many similar but . I feel the director was unfaithful to the book.The book and movie version of Our America had many differences.

Snakes have been seen as a symbol of hatred and evil since the beginning of time. The devil came to Adam and Eve as a snake when he was trying to get them to eat the forbidden fruit. Snakes play a very important role in the Harry potter series and without them, the series would not be complete. Everything revolves around snakes in this story, Slytherin, Voldemort snakes that is one of the horcruxes which is very special, and Voldemort himself he looks like a snake. “While the serpents in the Harry Potter series play a significant role in the text, it is not their life‐affirming characteristics that are highlighted but their negative associations with death and destruction via their involvement with Rowling’s malicious villains (Berner & Millman 69)” This quote helps to further explain the reasoning behind the whole world thinking that Slytherin has and will always be bad. The four main reasons as to why the audience thinks that Slytherin is always bad are that all Slytherins are evil, Slytherin can’t be brave, Slytherins only care about money and the Slytherin house does not work with the rest of the houses in Hogwarts.
