The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas

 The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas

We are currently reading The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas by John Boyne.
It is based during World War II, 8-year-old Bruno and his family leave Berlin to take up residence near the concentration camp where his father has just become commandant. Unhappy and lonely, he wanders out behind his house one day and finds Shmuel, a Jewish boy of his age. Though the barbed-wire fence of the camp separates them, the boys begin a forbidden friendship, oblivious to the real nature of their surroundings.
