Jackboot control over Warsaw continues to tighten and with time all the Jews in city, including Misha, the other boys, and Janina’s family are forced into the ghetto. Janina’s family includes Mr. Milgrom, Mrs. Milgrom, and Uncle Shepsel. The family lives in a small room that Uncle Shepsel calls a “closet” (60). Jackboots build a wall around the ghetto and attempt to starve out the people within. Smuggling becomes commonplace in the city and Misha begins sneaking out of a “two bricks wide” hole in the wall to steal food (73). He then smuggles food for both the Milgroms and Doctor Korczak’s orphans. Misha is now considered an honorary member of the Milgrom family and Janina views him as an older brother. Soon, Janina begins to smuggle food, too.
