Honestly, the book really doesn't have any goal or main plot. I found the book very pointless as it only showed the everyday life of Bruno and did not have an affect on anything. Bruno's goal is nonexistant as he is an innocent and is simply trying to live while the rest of the characters are living their everyday lives as well. As i said before, the book only portrays life at Auschwitz or near it from the eyes of a naive boy. The main and overall goal for the main characters would really be to survive and live through what harsh obstacles they may face. the book is good and clever but is on a particularly sensitive subject. It has caused much controversy throughout the years it has been published. I did not enjoy nor like the book because I did not see a goal or a point to any of it. I did not see a change in any of the characters as they all remained static. There, overall, was absolutely no point or goal to the book for the main characters, but rather, only a point for the author to show the Holocaust in a witty and innocent way and to convey the thoughts of the events taking place during the Holocaust through the eyes of an innocent, the main character Bruno.

The main theme of the boy in the striped pyjamas is chidhood innocence, friendship and discrimination.
Bruno, the little boy. He is also the main character.
Personally, I like Shmuel, and Bruno.

some of the main characters are mean and nasty and some are kind and happy
Personally, I like Shmuel, and Bruno.
the main problem is that Bruno is trying to help the boy in the stripped pajamas escape from the camp. while Bruno is helping the little boy he is also bringing the boy food because he is starving from not being fed at the camp. At the end Bruno digs up a hole and instead of the boy in the striped pajamas coming out Bruno goes in to help the little boy find his grandfather. they both end up going into a gas chamber and both die by mistake.
He likes playing goal sport is handsome and full by confidence.
To keep you warm :P
