 There was a girl named Liesel who stole a lot of books because she loved to read. "I try to ignore it, but I know this all started with the train and snow and my coughing brother. I stole my first book that day. It was a manual for digging graves and I stole it on the way to Himmel Street." At this point she couldn't read but once she reached her foster parents, her new dad taught her how to read. She got better and better until she was through the whole first book. She learns the value of words and now can't live without them.
                 There was a girl named Liesel who stole a lot of books because she loved to read. "I try to ignore it, but I know this all started with the train and snow and my coughing brother. I stole my first book that day. It was a manual for digging graves and I stole it on the way to Himmel Street." At this point she couldn't read but once she reached her foster parents, her new dad taught her how to read. She got better and better until she was through the whole first book. She learns the value of words and now can't live without them.
                There was a library burning happening but she managed to save one book. "He reached over and grabbed hold of The Shoulder Shrug. "No explanation was required. It was obvious that the girl had stolen it from the fire." She had stolen her second book. This new book not only gave her another book to read and learn about new words but also lead her to be a thief. She stole a variety of things, mainly food though, but she would snatch a book when she'd get the chance. She and her best friend Rudy would try to get away with a bunch a small heists.
                She made a friend that had constant nightmares. He was a Jew (by the way this took place during the holocaust) so he lived in constant fear in the basement of Liesel's house. "The book was red, with black writing on the spine. The Dream Carrier. She thought of Max Vandenburg and his dreams. Of guilt. Surviving. Leaving his family. Fighting the Fuhrer." When she saw the book she thought it could help him with his dreams and so she read to him. Eventually he did get better and he thanked her when he did. When she got it she also thought about her own nightmares from when she was seperated from her family.
                All of these books were read by Liesel to improve her skills and to progress through her life. The resembled connections to her past and doors to her future. If the author could reproduce these fictional books the public could get in more depth what inspired Liesel to move through her unfortunate life. People could continue the series as they imagine Liesel thoughts while reading the trilogy. It will keep people reading because there are more books to become even more in depth than the original. The even make it a bit more appealing we could see them all four books together as a Book Thief Combo Pack.

This is an example of a what the trilogy 
would look like. | 
 
               It could be sold like a trilogy just like   other series. And the combination makes it  cheaper, convenient, and affordable. This would not only make it an addition to the original but also possible a popular purchase for those how have read the original. For those who haven't heard of the book they'd probably hear about it after this.

 
Creative idea, Andrew! I like how directly you connected your idea with the text. The Book Thief Combo pack would add a new dimension to reading and understanding Liesel's story.
