How I think the book will end

I think 'The boy in the striped Pyjamas' will end with the war ending and the Jews in the deathcamp set free. Bruno's father dies and Bruno's family goes back home to Berlin and brings Shmeul with him. Another way the book might end is the Jews will be killed and Bruno will realise how bad war is. Bruno tries to stop his father and is put into the deathcamp for a few months, when he devises a plan to help some of the Jews escape. When his father took him out, he was forced to help him but some of the Jews managed to escape. In the book, so far Bruno still doesn't know much about his father's job, the deathcamp and what they are doing in 'out-with'. I think later on he will find out about all these things.

The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas

By the end of the book, the character who I think will change the most is Bruno. In the part I am up to, Bruno is still an innocent little boy who doesn't know much about his father's job or where he is living. He doesn't realise that he is living next to a death camp. I think at the end of the book, he will realise what his father's job is, where he is living next to and what will happen to the people living next to him. I think he will realise his father is a nazi, that he is living next to a death camp and what happen to the people who are living in the death camp. I think he will be saddened by that and try to protect them by talking to his father.  By the end of the novel I think he will try to stop his father from killing all the people in the deathcamp.
