In the beginning of the story, The Devil's Arithmetic its about a girl named Hannah. In the start of the story Hannah didn't want to go to a family celebration but later she was forced to go anyway. She was kind of angry at the beginning because she was picking on her brother when he wants to do what she's doing. So she gets angry and picks on him more and more. When she get to the family celebration she starts to remember when she was younger and when someone talks to her it seems like magic every time they spoke. Now that she is older the magic starts to weaken and feel like the magic had lost its touch now everything feels plain and ordinary.
The conflicts in the book is Hannah doesn't want to remember the Passover Seder but her mother says "its a celebration she has to remember all the time". The Hannah don't want to go the family celebration but was forced to go anyway. The theme of the book is to remember things that you are suppose to know, like the passover where Hannah is suppose to remember when its coming up and to get ready when the family gets together. If you don't remember certain things then you'll forget the things that you suppose to know.
