Over the summer, 8th graders were asked to read The Boy in the Striped Pajamas by John Boyne. I truly hope you all enjoyed reading this novel as you had the chance to see World War II through the eyes of a young boy. Starting Tuesday, students will be working on activities related to the novel, so be sure you have your novel with you! If you need a refresher, here's a short book talk from one reader's perspective!
Yes, the book also has a movie version. If you simply watch the movie without reading the novel, you will have a difficult time in class next week. Spend the weekend reading - it'll be worth it!!
