177 Words1 Page

Bruno, a young boy from a rich family living in Krakow, Germany has the perfect life. He has three best friends, and loves his school. As he hears the news that he is going to move, Bruno is shocked. They news breaks out and Bruno’s family moves to Auschwitz. As Bruno is known to be very adventurous, he explores the city and finds a boy as he interprets, “In striped pajamas.” When reading the book, I analyze that Bruno acts stubborn when told that his family is going to move, as he has friends in Krakow. Chapter Two begins with a comparison of Bruno's old home in Berlin to his new living situation. His old home in Berlin was very large and spacious, with beautiful furniture and decorations, as well as many places for him to hide in and explore.

    I have chosen two moments to base my creative pieces on. The first moment, I have chosen is when Bruno assumes the prisoners of the concentration camp are farmers, in which his father responds by saying “They’re not people at all”.
