What major change/ changes do you feel Yanek has undergone so far? How has he evolved? What has he learned about himself and the world?

it depends on how far you are along in the novel (and if this is the correct novel) I'll basically post a summary and then you have to find out where your supposed to be at in the novel and wrote what's closest to it.

Yanek Gruener Character Analysis

Yanek is the protagonist of Prisoner B-3087. Yanek’s story is based on the real Yanek (Jack) Gruener’s experiences during World War II. When the story begins in 1939, Yanek is living with his parents Oskar and Mina in Kraków, Poland when the Nazis invade. Yanek subsequently endures deteriorating and inhumane conditions in the Kraków ghetto and 10 concentration camps prior to his liberation from Dachau concentration camps in 1945. From the outset of the war, Yanek learns key lessons that help him survive the Nazis’ anti-Semitism and cruelty. First, he becomes incredibly mature, even as a young teenager, as he tries to protect his family and himself from the Nazis’ wrath. Then, when his parents are taken to the concentration camps without him, Yanek becomes completely responsible for his own well-being, illustrating how the war causes him to grow up far earlier than he would have to otherwise. Once he is taken to the Plaszów concentration camp, he reunites with his Uncle Moshe, who teaches him how to survive inside the camps. Yanek learns to make himself anonymous and not stand out, so that the Nazis would not target him. This eradication of his identity becomes even more thorough when, at Birkenau, he is given a tattooed number (B-3087) in lieu of a name. Moshe also teaches him not to form connections with other prisoners, because looking out for oneself has to take precedence. But Yanek also recognizes, particularly after Moshe’s death, the value in some relationships, understanding that mutual support can be a crucial buoy for the prisoners. Ultimately, Yanek’s journey also illustrates how prisoners needed both determination and luck in order to survive. Yanek gets lucky at several junctures in his journey, but he also maintains his will to survive so that he can secure a life after the war. After the Americans liberate Yanek from Dachau concentration camp, Yanek’s journey concludes with his setting out for America in pursuit of that new life, away from the horrors of what he has experienced.
