He comes across a barbed wire fence, with a young boy named Schmuel (played by Scanlon) on the other side wearing what Bruno perceives to be striped pajamas.

Because of the Holocaust, her mother had Rahel baptised to save her (The little ones that got away: Incredible stories of Jewish children who survived the Nazi holocaust 2). Initially, life for children in this time period was harder than what most people in our generation go through. Children were targeted by the Nazis and were too young to work, which gave them

The mass murders took place at concentration camps throughout Europe. The majority of concentration camps resided in Poland and Germany. Many people believe there were only a few concentration camps. “However, researchers found that the Nazis had actually established 20,000 camps between 1933 and 1945” (“How Many Camps,” n.d.). In this paper I will be discussing the largest concentration camp, Auschwitz-Birkenau. Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp was located in the southwest corner of Poland

Auschwitz was created and established to become the largest concentration camp consisting of several subcamps and three specific camps: a prison camp, a death camp, and a slave labor camp.
