The Boy in the Striped Pajamas, was a good book about the holocaust.  It was an average book until the end when it began to intensify.  The main character was a nine year old boy with a Natzi Father.  Bruno was a curious boy which does not lead him down a pleasant path.  This was a book everybody needs to read for many different reasons.

 

This book is for young adults because its too graphic for children.  The information applies to young adults.  This is a book you will learn from. This book was written well making it easy to read.  For those who are thirteen years old they will find it a bit easy to read.  

 

The writer in this book shows great emotions between the characters.  The emotions affect the story in multiple ways.  One instance was when The Mother was so upset that she desired to move.  More emotional instances took place throughout the book.

 

This book was well written and was for our level of reading.   Closer to the end, when I was loosing interest, the book began to intensify which increased my interest.  In this story each character acted their age.  I did not relate due to the difference in my age and theirs.  I learned to always obey my parents or their will be hurtful and painful consequences.  

 

You can learn many different lessons from this book.  It is like reading a history book.  This story gives you a lot of information about what it was like when Hitler was in charge.  The Boy in Striped Pajamas was all about a Natzi boy who lives on a Jewish concentration camp.  His parents instruct him to stay away from the Concentration camp but curious Bruno fell to his curious nature.  Disobeying his parents left him with consequences.  This was a satisfying book and I do recommend people read The Boy in Striped Pajamas where you will learn many different lessons.
