Young Adult Adventure
Berlin 1942 When Bruno returns home from school one day, he discovers
that his belongings are being packed in crates. His father
has received a promotion and the family must move from
their home to a new house far far away, where there is no
one to play with and nothing to do. A tall fence running
alongside stretches as far as the eye can see and cuts him
off from the strange people he can see in the distance. But Bruno longs to be an explorer and decides that there
must be more to this desolate new place than meets the eye.
While exploring his new environment, he meets another boy
whose life and circumstances are very different to his own,
and their meeting results in a friendship that has
devastating consequences.
