The Night My Cat Died

For my project I did the “Night of Broken Glass.” This stood out to me because of how terrible I pictured it in my mind so I just had to draw it. Gerda had to hide in the basement. In my drawing I drew an apartment building on fire because in Gerda’s statement she said that there were explosions all around. When she said “explosions all around” that phrase just stuck with me for the whole project. Gerda is crying because her cat was shot in the stomach and would soon die.
