October's featured book for Books and Brownies is The Boy in the Striped Pajamas by John Boyne.
Bored and lonely after his family moves from Berlin to a place called “Out-With” in 1942, Bruno, the son of a Nazi officer, befriends a boy in striped pajamas who lives behind a wire fence. This thought-provoking Holocaust book is told from the viewpoint of an innocent child who is a bystander to this tragic event in history. A movie based on the book was released in 2008.
Join us on Saturday, October 22nd at 3:00 in the small meeting room for a lively discussion of this month's book and brownies meeting.
