What are the names of the characters in "Daniel's Story" by Carol Matas?

In Daniel's Story, the titular character and narrator is Daniel—a boy who survives the atrocities of the Nazi regime during World War II in Germany. Thanks to family support and his hope for the future, Daniel survives to see the liberation of himself and others from a Nazi concentration camp.


Daniel's father, Joseph, does not begin the book as a religious character, but his spirituality increases as he and his family endure the inhumane treatment of the Nazi regime.


Ruth is Daniel's mother. She is a family leader, but does not survive after being imprisoned at Auschwitz.


Daniel falls in love with Rosa when he meets her in Poland after leaving Frankfurt. Later in the book, he marries her. 


Some of the other characters who have significant parts in the story include Uncle Peter, Auntie Leah, Peter, Friedrich, Brigitte, Gertrude, Adam, and Oma Rachel.
