The Boy in the Striped Pajamas John Boyne

Accolades Two Irish Book Awards New York Times Bestseller List Carnegie Medal Sold more than 5 million copies worldwide “A memorable and moving story.” –The Oxford Times “Deeply affecting… beautiful and sparsely written.” – Wall Street Journal “Sure to take readers’ breath away.” –Publishers Weekly

John Boyne Born April 30, 1971 in Dublin, Ireland Began by writing short stories (70 published) Writes novels for adults and young adults (6 published to date)

John Boyne Interview It was quite important to me when I wrote this book that the two boys at the centre of this book would be the real heroes of the story, they wouldn’t have the same hatreds and prejudices that the adults in the book have. Even though it’s a sad story… if you were moved by the story of Bruno and Shmuel and what happens to them then you would know that there are a wealth of other books out there by people who really went through these experiences which you can then go and read. I subtitled the book a fable… so it’s supposed to be an introduction to a study of the subject and hopefully that the story of these two boys would move you enough that you would want to learn more about it.

Setting 1943 Begins in Berlin, Germany Continues at Auschwitz, outside of Krakow, Poland

Fable A short narrative that makes a moral point May critique authority figures Requires the reader to look beyond the story’s surface In light of these characteristics, what can you expect for this novel?

Themes An Innocent Perspective The Essence of Friendship Acts of Humanity Obedience and Conformity Prejudice and Discrimination

Pre Reading Opinions Agree or Disagree If you know of something that is morally wrong, you should do something about it. Everyone has fundamental basic rights as a human being. You should do everything your boss tells you to do, even if you don’t think it is right. You can be friends with someone who is different from you. You can be friends with someone your parents would not approve.

Activity Bruno, the novel’s protagonist, is told that he will be moving in one day. Imagine that you are given 24 hours notice to plan and pack a suitcase for the move. How would you feel? How would you prepare? Who would you call? What would you take? What would you leave behind?
