What did The Boy in The Striped Pyjamas Teach me?

The novel The Boy In The Striped Pyjamas is a heart warming book about lies and secrets. In the book the protagonist, Bruno, is very curious to know what is over the fence because he does not understand what is so awful about it. This book taught me that in the eyes of a child things are misunderstood. Children such as Bruno don't know why Shmuel is an enemy and he can't see that his father are doing bad things to the Jews. It led to me realizing that difference in a little child's eye does not change anything because with friendship there are differences and friendship is stronger than hate!
