The Boy in the Striped Pajamas
1 journaler for this copy...
Creative story about the horrors of the second World War.
From the back cover--
"If you start to read this book, you will go on a journey with a nine-year old boy named Bruno. (Though this isn't a book for nine-year olds.) And sooner or later you will arrive with Bruno at a fence.
Fences like this exist all over the world. We hope you never have to encounter one."
This tale haunts you for some time after you read it. I want to visit the Holocaust Museum when I release this into the wild. We read this book for Beyond Chapter Three's discussion in September 2009. Several of the book group members also saw the movie, though not me. One of the comments made was that this was not a book (or movie) for kids!
My son asked to read this book so I'll be releasing it to him. I'd like to eventually release it at the Holocaust Musuem in downtown Dallas.
Too many books, too little time!
Happy Reading!
