BOYNE, JOHN
THE BOY IN THE STRIPED PAJAMAS


During the Holocaust, Bruno, the son of a high-ranking German soldier, befriends Schmuel, a Jewish prisoner at a concetration camp...


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 the fence.


Fences like this exist all over the world. We hope you never have to encounter one.
