Novel 7 Dreaming in Black and White

The protagonist of this book is a young, disabled boy named Hannes. He dreams to be taken back in time when there was the Third Reich. In this dream he fears the Nazis because Hitler didn't want disabled men and children; he wanted only perfect human beings. He thought that there was no room for disabled people. Hannes' school recommends him to think that the school is his home because of his disabilities. But Hannes knows that they say this because they want him to go there to kill him eventually. Hitler says that it doesn't have sense to spend money on disabled people because a family could do more things with the same money. A friend of his mom told her that if she loves her child (Hannes) she shouldn't leave him go at this school because the Nazis built a crematorium near to this school. He says that it has been built to kill the disabled children that go to this school. At the end Hannes wants that someone signs the contract to make him go to this school. His dream is coming to an end but he still thinks how bad disabled people were treaten.
