In 2006 there was a book by the author John Boyne. It was about a boy who had to move to a place called "out-with" a Concentration camp where his father worked for Adolf Hitler. When the boy got there he came to realize that there was no one there to play with. Than looking out his window he quickly saw that there was a fence in which there were over hundreds of people in "Striped Pajamas." He than meets a boy when looking up at the fence and they become friends. This weekend a movie for this inspiring movie came out. Me and my mom wanted to see it but, when I looked online to see when it is starting I found out about the book. I quickly ordered it from my library and told my mom to go without me for now. I want to learn everything that went on because, movies cut many things out.
When I was in Germany the first thing we saw was the very first concentration camp. Docwasich. (Though the book was based at Aushtitz The place most of them were sent to die.) Docwasich had fire places. It was depressing and I wanted to cry after seeing pictures of it. It was one of the saddest things I had seen. I have been yerning to learn more about it. I already had learned most of it and got lots of pictures but, I feel as if I had not learned enough. Our school is going to a Holocaust museum some time soon and I hope it is my grade because, it is something I want to remember and be able to know I have the best things in life. To know the dangers of the world and learn history.
I am VERY excited to read the book because, I feel it will be an inspirational story. The book was based on a true story because, the Author I believe was the one who befriended the little kid on the other side of the fence because, he was "The boy in the Striped Pajamas."

I hope you will like this book. I tried to read some book about girl who was in one of these camps but it is too depressed for me. Then I feel bad and sad. I was in one war camp in Vukovar im Croatia and it was also too sad and deepressed. But I think we all should know what crule people did to other innocent people. Today here is a memorial day for all people who died in fatherland war and we did some slide show and I couldn't see it.
