(150-1) What information do we get that makes the reader start to feel that he is becoming less innocent and more ignorant? he is starting to find out more about Shmuel's life and this makes him know more stuff about horrible things but he is still innocent as he has not yet worked out that it is the Germans doing this.
(151-3) What is interesting about the weather and how does it relate to the overall emotion of this stage in the book? it is raining and the book is sad.
(153) What does Bruno accidentally say to Gretel? that he is missing his friend
(154-5) Is Bruno able to consider Gretel's feelings? How do you know?
(155) What is it that motivates Bruno not to tell Gretel the truth? How does this portray Bruno as being selfish? as he says it is his friend not hers and that he doesn't want to share.
(158) What is it that Bruno realises when he starts recounting what Shmuel tells him? Why do you think that this is when he finally starts to realise what Shmuel is experiencing? he starts to see how painful and sad it is the things that are happing to Shmuel as him saying it out loud sounds worst than Shmuel saying it out loud
(159) What is ironic and hypocritical about what Gretel tells Bruno regarding imaginary friends? it is ironic because she talks to her dolls and it is hypocritical as she talks to her dolls
