The story of The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas is very difficult to describe. Usually we give some clues about the book on the cover, but in this case we think that would spoil the reading of the book. We think it is important that you start to read without knowing what it is about. If you do start to read this book, you will go on a journey with a nine-year-old boy called Bruno. Though this isn't a book for nine-year-olds. And sooner or later you will arrive with Bruno at a fence. We hope you never have to cross such a fence.

one of the sadest coolest books i have ever read
such a sad story i want cry i read it once and saw the movie like 4 times i cried 4 hours after the movie.
This Book is awsome, although I didnt read it the movie is good and it has a twist on it. The main people is a 2 nine year old boys and Shummal and Bruno. Hope you read or see it.

I never like sad storeys!
I read the book and have not seen the movie yet. I liked this story because it was told in the voice of a child. This boy seems so innocent - and sometimes silly. You want to have some background knowledge of concentration camps / holocaust before reading this.
it was so good but sad
Book ihave to read for language arts. Very good about world war 2 and a boy whos dad is a high ranking nazi.
