"A timeless story of innocence lost and humanity found."

Loss
Loss is detriment, disadvantage, or deprivation from failure to keep, have or get.

This picture represents being deprived of or being without something that one has had. Shmuel has lost his dad and can't find him anywhere. His dad may have died and he doesn't have nothing but his dad. Bruno helps him try and find his dad by putting on the Jews stripped pajamas and then digs a hole to go under the fence. Not to much later he dies from the poison and suffers in death with his best friend Shmuel. His Father has lost him forever and couldn't stop it soon enough he was too late. He had been a solider that didn't care about the Jews that his son had died with and if he would have done something for the Jews his son wouldn't have died. Maybe now his Father will realize something and he will always have to know his son suffered before he died. This represents a loss of something really meaningful to you or someone. I felt down and alot like this when I lost my papa it was so unexspecting. I wish i could have seen him one more time. I love him so much and i miss his alot it took a long time for me to get over it. He raised me when i was little and i lived with him he was like a dad to me. It was really hard for me and my grandma to get through it. We will always miss him but it was a huge loss for me and my grandma.This is my cat Baby Phat he looks alot like my cat that i lost 2 years ago. We got Baby Phat to take his place. The cat i lost looked just like him and his name was Fatso i miss him alot. He was in the family for a long time and i got him when i was 5 years old. Fatso had liver failer there was nothing we could do. He had a good life and he wasn't just any cat he was a big part of the family. Baby Phat is alot like him and we love him alot and he is now a big part of the family. We will always miss Fatso. Its hard to lose someting you love alot and mostly when you cant do anything about it or change it. This is the picture of when the family and Bruno move to a new house because his dad is sent there for his work being a soldier. The family had lost all there friends and there family was not around. It was just them and there was no houses by them so no children. All Bruno saw was what he called a farm that was really a Jew camp. Little did they all know there was a lot to come and Bruno would suffer in death.
This picture represents when Bruno's parents are happy and love eachother and there lives. They both have lost eachother and the family is falling apart because of how Bruno's father is. When they move to the new house everything changes and Bruno's mom goes some what crazy and is emotional everyday. She did not like how Bruno's father didn't care about Jews and would kill them. He could have stopped it and all Bruno's mother could smell is burning flesh. She didn't want Bruno around that and she don't think it is right. So she leaves him and is going back were they use to live and Bruno would being going with.
This is a Jew that works around Bruno's house and likes Bruno. He treats him good and helps him out. He raps his knee in bandage and will help him even though he is a slave. This reresents loss because of how much a Jew will go through and they would still help people and there was not too much Bruno could do. He didn't understand what Jews go through witch is another loss because he realizes he don't want to be like his dad. Jews are just people like us and there is no reason to treat them like that and beat them.
This is the loss that the family has to go through. They moved away from there home town and never got to see there family. Brunos grandma gets very sick and soon passes away none of the family got to see her for one last time. they all loved granma and Bruno did't know how to act and didn't understand everything yet. He loved his grandma and wished he could have seen her again. Although none of the family tried to show there emotions. Moveing to this place has made this family lose alot of things and has made people realize things.
This is a loss because this is the last time Bruno's mom will see him before he goes and suffers to death. No one else got to say good bye to him but his mom. She just thought he was going outside to play but will soon end up in a shower room undressed with a group of Jews. Then his mom will realize he is not outside and he has gone to the camp and she will be too late. She will find his cloths and will know what she has lost. She alrety feels he is dead and knows he had suffered.This is a picture of Shmuel witch is Bruno's best friend that is a Jew. Shmuel has lost his dad and dont know if he is dead or is missing. He needs Brunos help finding his dad before Bruno leaves. So Bruno offers him and asks Shmuel to get him some striped pajamas. Then the next day before Bruno leaves forever he goes to help Shmuel find his dad. Shmuel may have lost his dad forever and will have no one. Bruno is brave desides to go in the consentration camp. He digs a hole while its raining and takes off all his cloths and puts Jews stripped pajamas on. Bruno crawls under the fence they go and look for his dad and little does his family know he is going to end up dead.
This picture shows what the boys dad lost because he lost his son from poisons gas. Bruno had died with Shmuel because they were looking for Shmuel's dad until they were lead into a warm shower place. They had to take off all there clothes and were sent in to a air packed place. Then a soldier locked them into the room along with all the other group of Jews. Lastly a soldier puts the poisons gas into the room and it kills all of them. Bruno would never be seen again his dad was too late and has to live with that forever. This is the Jews that were posioned to death and burned into ash during world war II. Its crazy that they did all of this and alot of lives were lost. So many people were killed from just being a Jew. They lost alot of people and killed them and made them suffer.

Friends Until the End

One day Father summened Bruno and Gretel into a office to tell them the changes(John Boyne The Boy in the Sriped Pajamas 188).The striped pajamas yes, said Father nooding his head as if he had made a final decision. Well Iv'e seen them said Bruno. He nodded his head as if he hadmade a final decision(191). Brunofound that he was not looking forward to this as much as he would have expected and he dreaded haveing to tell Shmuel the news(192). The day after Father told Bruno that he had to return to Berlin soo(193). Bruno broke into a smile when he saw the figure comeing towards him and sat down on the ground, takeing the piece of bread(193). Well? asked Bruno. What was it? Papa said Shmuel we cant find him(194). I'm going to Berlin said Bruno. But for how long? asked Shmuel. I think it's forever said Bruno. So I wont see you again asked Shmuel(196). So tomarrow will be th last time we see eachother and we'll have to say our good byes then(198). But, Shmuel needed his father. Well if thats the case said Bruno and if I had a pair of stripped pajamas too, I couldn't come over on a visit. Shmuel's face brightened up and he broke into a wide smile would you do it?(199). Of course, said Bruno. It will be a great adventure(198). And you could help me loo for Papa said Shmuel. the next day Bruno snuck away to see Shmuel one last time(200). You sill want to help me find Papa? asked Shmuel. Of course he said. I wouldn't let you down(202). Bruno took off all his clothes and put the striped pajamas on(203). Bruno had no choice but to roll under the fence in the mudd. All Bruno wanted to do is help Shmuel and find his father and Shmuel had an urge too give Bruno a hug to thank him for everything(206).Once Bruno was in the went looking for Shmuel's Papa. Bruno saw crowds of people sitting togeather in groups looking horribly sad(207). While surching for Papa the soldiers began to lead a large group of Jews into a shower room(210). Bruno and Shmuel were in that group and they went into a room that was surprisingly warm and must have been very securely built because no rain was getting anywhere. In fact it felt completely airtight(212). Shmuel gathered him self very close to Bruno and looked up in fright(211). Bruno took hold of Shmuel's tiny hand in his and squeezed it tightly. You're my best friend Shmuel he said(212).Shmuel may well have opened his mouth to say something but Bruno never heard it because at that moment there was a load gasp from all the marchers who had filled the room, as the door at the front closed and a load metallic sound rang throught from the outside. And then the room went very dark and some how, despit the Chaos that folloeed, bruno found that he was still holding Shmuel's hand in his own and nothing in the world would have persuaded him to let go(213).

Different Lifes During the War

Bruno sees life easy and like he don't have much. Shmeul sees Bruno's life like it is a gift. Both boys are a lot alike but, they see things differently. Bruno is an ordenary boy and has a pritty good life and Shmeul may not have any family left and is starving. Shmeul has a high risk of dieing and wont be able to get out of the camp till the war is over and the U.S. wins. Hitler caused all of these consentration camps and killed a lot of people. It's crazy hoe these people were only Jewish and belived a little different and had to die for it.

How My Novel is Related to WWII

http://boyinthestripedpyjamas.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/film-the-boy-in-the-striped-pyjamas2.jpg

My novel The Boy in the Striped Pajamas it is related to World War II in many ways. This novel is about Bruno and his family that are a typical family that don't get bothered with anything. They are not Jews or Blacks and during the war they did not need to be escorted anywhere. This family is just like every other family and are safe. Bruno comes to meet a boy on another side of the fence that is in a concentration camp. My book also talks about a story that happened during the Holocaust. My story relates to the war because it tells a story that might have happened and how Jewish families were treated when they were sent away. They were separated between boys and girls. Even the young kids had to go through the same thing and had to be separated.

These images show how the Jews were treated during the war and how they had to live. "You can't have all lived in the one room," said Bruno, shaking his head. "That doesn't make any sense"(David The Boy in the Strpied Pajamas 128). "All of us," said Shmuel, nodding his head. "Eleven in total"(128). These images are important and show how the people were during the war and how crouded it was in the rooms. This shows my main charcter Bruno that he has no idea of what Shmuel is going through. He dont understand how all the of the people in the concentration camp have to stay together in rooms and why they have to work a lot. Bruno dont understand why he was so skiny and looked like he was starved. Shmuel hasn't told him everything but does tell stories that have happened to him. He doesn't want to scare Bruno away he likes haveing him around to talk to. Bruno is really intrested in Shmuel's life and really wants to know more about it. He never thought he would have meet a boy like him and didnt know why he was not like other boys. Bruno will soon come to see what really happens to Shmuel and what all he has been through. This will impact the outcome of the war because Shmuel may not live unless the war ends soon and he is free.

These artifacts change my opinion of the war because it makes me angry that our people would do this to people. It is carzy that they treated people like this just over being a different color or haveing a surtain religon. These images also make me sad because I have to look at these pictures and how brutal they were treated and how many people were killed. A lot of them were starveing, were very weak, and they had no one to help them. It is sad they had to be seperated from their families and they never knew if they would see eachother again. I just cant believe they had to go through all of this and I cant believe how many people had to died. It is crazy how the war ended and they were all free but, it was to late for a lot of people.

~ HATE ~

Hate is to dislike intensely or passionately. Basically you dislike something or someone. One example is I hate reading or I hate that girl/boy. Hate can cause a lot of issues and people will show how they really feel about something or someone. Some people can not be left alone, people can hurt emotionally and fiscally, and can even end up killed. Hate can be dangerous but, not always is. Hate was a big issue in World War II and the Holocaust.

The people that were most discriminated against during World War II and the Holocaust were the Jews, and the Blacks. Jews and Blacks were faced against anywhere from isolation to murder. Hitler caused a lot of this and was completely racist and made life for the Jews and Blacks hard and cause a lot of them to die. Both Jews and Blacks were forced to work on concentration camps or where ever they were sent to work. They both could not eat for days and were not free and released till the war was over.
Sexism is one of our most biggest issues today. Sexism is the belief or attitude towards a gender or sex. A lot of people are treated really bad from this and get beat to death and can die because of there sex orientation. Even today Racism is still discriminated against even with couples that are together with different race. Just because they look different doesn't mean they should be treated different, and it does not mean people should hurt or kill them for their race. Its sad that it is still going on today when they are just people like all of us.

"No one yet knows what awaits the Jews in the twenty-first century, but we must make every effort to ensure that it is better than what befell them in the twentieth, the century of the Holocaust." - Benjamin Netanyahu
