The boy in the striped pajamas is a really sad book written by John Boyne. Its about an innocent little 9 year old boy who finds himself suddenly moving houses and leaving his friends for his dads job as a soldier. They moved to a place called Out -With. Here at the out with house Bruno ( the little boy/ Main Character) could see people, huts and a fence from his window so one day decided to go exploring. He found a boy named Shmuel whom he played with every day. ( except for rainy days). Well Im getting to carried away with myself so im going to stop cause other wise i would tell you the wholi story.
My favorite quote from the book is... 'The dot that became a speck that became blob that became a figure that became a boy.' this quote is said when Bruno starts getting closer to the fence in front of him/ when he is about to meet Shmuel for the first time.
I recommend this book for intermediate children because it might be to difficult for younger students to under stand most of the concepts in the book. This book was also made into a movie which i dont really recommend for younger viewers.
SEE YA!!!
