The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas



Is there anything more touching than the vision of horror through the eyes of innocence? This book is simply amazing and I strongly recommend you to read it.

215 pages of a moment of history through Bruno's eyes, a boy who has to move to his new house in Out-With, as he calls Auschwitz, where he has no one to play until he meets Shmuel, a boy wearing a striped pyjamas who lives beyond the fence.


This book has been used by teachers to work with students of English as Second Language. If you have read it and you want to share your opinions and comments, this is your blog so feel free to do it!
