The Boy in the Striped Pajamas

by John Boyne
- Rated 3 stars
“I read this a couple of years ago when it first came out. What a compelling and heartbreaking story, and not for children only. It's the story of two young boys, one on each side of the fence at Auschwitz. Need I say more? The ending will blow you away.”
