The book I am currently reading is called “The boy in striped pajamas”. The story takes places during world war II in Nazi Germany. The main character of the story Bruno, moves with his father, mother and older sister from his home in Berlin due to his Nazi commanders father’s job. When exploring his new home Bruno meets a boy named Shamuel behind a fence. Shamuel was a prisoner at Auschwitz death camp. They were separated because of their religion and ethnicity. Just like how during WWII jews were separated because of their religion.Bruno and his sister didn’t know what horrible things their father did and were mostly clueless. Bruno's mother didn’t completely know what was going on but had an idea,but she didn’t know that their new home will be so close to the camps. During WWII the germans blamed the jews for germany's problems and wanted to get revenge. In the story the prisoners are killed with poison gas and are tortured on the daily basis, this is what the jews faced in in concentration camps during WWII .
