The Boy in Striped Pajamas
By John Boyne
Pages: 218
This fiction book is
a sad story about the Holocaust. The
book focuses on only one family’s life during this time period. There is a boy
named Bruno who has to move and he is mad. “Why?” Bruno would always think. His
dad was a Nazi; Bruno’s family lived right next to a concentration camp with
people in striped pajamas. He made a friend with one of the men in the pajamas.
His name was Shmuel. Bruno really didn’t understand what the holocaust was
about, so one day he went under the fence.
He put on striped pajamas and tried to help Shmuel find his dad. They
both ended up dying (maybe from the gas chamber the book doesn’t say). If you
are a sensitive person, there are only a few parts that are sad.

Book Summary
Rotten Romans
By Terry Deary
Pages: 136
This hilarious but horrible book is about the Romans. Romans
would cut a person’s head off and nail it to their own house wall because they
thought the head had magical powers. Also, if kids were lazy in school then
they would get beaten. Clearly, these Romans were surely rotten.
