This book review has a boring title

 By; Patrick H.

In this review I will review the Boy in the Striped Pajamas. This book was written by John Boyne. John Boyne has wrote 29 books such as, "This House is Haunted", "The Thief of Time", "Crippen", "The Dare", "The Second Child", and more. This book falls under the Realistic Fiction category. It is about a German boy who becomes friends with a Jewish boy who is trapped in a Concentration camp.


            I really enjoyed reading third book. The meaning behind the story was extremely powerful to me and I think that you will feel the same way. The plot was also great. What I didn't like at all about the book was how unrealistic it was. A boy would never be able to go near the outer walls of a concentration camp. The boy in the camp also wouldn't be just sitting out there all day. In the end the boy sneaks under the fence and gets in, but in a real life concentration camp he would never be able to do that because the walls were always being watched by guards, he would've been shot. Besides that one thing this book was good.
            I think anyone willing to read should definitely read this book, because of how powerful the story is. You can buy this book at your local library or online for around 15 dollars.
