wow good
I have the book The Boy in the Striped Pajamas ( the adult one). My friend at school's mum had this book and said that it was really good . Normally I don't like reading and so far ( I am 12) I have read only 2 books that I have enjoyed this being one of them. It is such a fantastic book, my mum and dad thought hat it was great because it is about what really happened in the war. At the end it is quite sad but still very good. I really enjoyed it and would really recomend it to people who do not like reading. And every one else as well.
