This story of two boys who find themselves quite literally on opposite sides of the fence is told through the eyes of 9-year-old Bruno, a naive German child who is unaware of the atrocities happening to his new friend at the Auschwitz concentration camp. This touching story of young friendship and the danger of complacency is presented as a fable that will give students a new (and most certainly interesting) perspective on the Holocaust.
