Good Points

The book showed the truth about what happened to the Jews in world war 2.

Bad Points

Some of the words he used were too old to be used by a 9 year old yet others were too young.

General Comments

The Boy In The Striped Pyjamas was a fascinating book about two boys that a friendship grows between even in the hardest of times. It shows the friction between the Jews and the Germans.
One boy is on one side of a large looming fence while the other boy is on the other side of the fence. Even though there differences they still built an extremely strong friendship that lasted their whole lives. I hope nothing like this ever happens again.
