The Boy In The Striped Pajamas: What i have read so far..

 

The Boy In The Striped Pajamas so far, from what I have read, is about a boy named Bruno. He has just moved away from his home town and all his friends. He used to live in a huge 5 story house and then he moves away from the house to a smaller, but still large, 3 story house. This novel takes place in Germany in the 19th century.

So far from what I have read I can predict that his is going to be about the Holocaust because I have heard that from book reviews I have seen. I can also predict that because this takes place around the time in history when the Holocaust was happening in Germany and other parts of Europe. Another prediction of why this took place during the Holocaust is because his father has a job that Bruno doesn't know what it is or what he does because he isn't allowed to know. His father also has his own office in the new house which Bruno is never allowed to go into for any reason. I think Bruno isn't allowed in because it could have stop secret information inside. A quote from the text is, "But when they asked Bruno what his father did eh opened his mouth to tell them, then reailzed that he didn't know himself."
