Introduction

Hi there!  We are Maddie, Letitia, Ella and Rosie. We live in a small town in New Zealand and we go to the local primary school there.  For reading, we must complete a Webquest on the novel called 'The Boy In The Striped Pyjamas'. Check out The Quest page for what we have to do.  Below is some background information on the amazing book we have read:

 It is World War II and Bruno has know idea. His father works for the Fury (Hitler) and Bruno and his sister Gretel have no idea. Mother, Father, Bruno and Gretel are happily living in Berlin, with many friends and a house with 5 stories, as well as a large banister that Bruno loves to slide down. All of this is dramatically changed when Father gets a new job as the head of a concentration camp. The family move out of Berlin and into a rural area.  Bruno meets a Jew named Shmuel from the concentration camp in which the boys form a special friendship.
