THE BOY IN THE STRIPED PYJAMAS


The Boy in the spriped pijamas :this book is about a boy named Bruno who lives in Berlin, Germany. This takes place in the Early 1940's. Bruno has 3 'best friends for life' named Karl, Martin, and Daniel.

Bruno's father is 'Hitlers Right Hand Man', and gets a promotion and gets to move closer to Hitler. He's excited, but Bruno isn't. Bruno also has a sister named Gretel, and a Maid named Maria. Bruno likes to call his sister 'A Hopeless Case'.

Also, Bruno LOVES to explore. And he would love to explore his new house.



After leaving his friends in hope to find new ones, he arrives at his new house. He's excited to find out about the place; and well, what he ends up finding isn't good at all.

He looks out his window to find what he thinks is a 'Farm', but what is the Auschwitz Concentration Camp for Jews. His father works there.

He decided to sneak away from his mother when she wasn't looking, and go to the camp. He saw a boy sitting at the edge of the fence, named Shemuel. With Shmuel, Bruno will be in great danger!
This is a great book.

 

  
MY PERSONAL OPINION : I think that this is a very good book becase in every moment you  can feel what Bruno is feeling ,when he meets the boy , when he explores... I enjoyed a lot and if you read it I think you also enjoy it !!(Patrii)
