The Boy in the Striped Pajamas

This new young adult novel is a powerful moral tale told through the eyes of a naive 9 year old boy whose father is a Nazi Commandant. The innocent viewpoint of the narrator provides a thin disguise of the brutal horrors of a Nazi death camp in Poland where Bruno, the young boy, secretly finds a friend in boy prisoner.

I highly recommend this for junior high and high school libraries and also as required reading for any Holocaust study units.
