Rosa Hubermann
Works full-time at home by washing and ironing the upperclases clothes and delivering them. Always infuriated, swears a lot. Uses the words, "saumensch", "saukrel" and "arschloch." She is about 5" tall, and has grey hair that's always tied in a bun. She is married to Hans Hubermann and they have two children together, Trudy and Hans Jr.
Hans Hubermann
Works part-time as a painter, and if money is really tight he rolls cigarettes and sells them. He fought in World War 1 and lost a good friend. He is a calmer person than his wife, he likes to laugh and joke around. He has a kind heart and cares very much about Liesel and the people around him. Married to Rosa, they have two children together. They also have fostered many other children.
Liesel Meminger
Goes to school full-time, when the story starts she is 10 years old and by the time it ends she is a teenager. She doesn't know her father, her little brother died when she was 10 and her mother gave her away to the Hubermann's. She is a free spirit, eager to learn, a little bit of a trouble maker but also very independant. Her best friend is a boy named Rudy, and although she refuses to admit it she loves him to death.
Trudy Hubermann
Works as a live-in housemaid for rich people in a town called Munich. She is about 5'3", with a very quiet soft voice and a gentle personality. She gets along with her parents and Liesel quite well.
Hans Jr. Hubermann
Joined the army to become a Nazi. His looks were almost identical to his father but his personality was completely different. Cold, harsh and loved to spark up arguements.
Max Vadenburg
Max is a 23 year old Jew, and he had been hiding in an old storage room for two years. Once his friend Walter could no longer keep him there safe, he shipped him off to the Hubermann's where they would take him in to the basement. He is very frail, very pale and very tall. A sweet guy with a terrible fate.
Rudy Steiner
Liesel's childhood best friend. He is secretly in love with her but never admits it. He has an obsession with Jesse Owens and strived to be like him as a child. A trouble maker like Liesel, they were destined to be best friends.
