Mystery Bags Reflection
Report on the possible Owner
The owner of this bag is most likely a female because there are perfume, lip gloss and the mirror inside the bag. She could be from a country where pounds are used, because one of her book has a tag with $ sign. She might be a tourist in Hong Kong because she had a Hong Kong map and tooth paste and brush for travelers in her bag. Maybe she has kid or kids to give Chinese animal books or she is someone who is learning Chinese. There is a photo of heart with number 10 on it, which is made of flowers. Photo seems like it’s for anniversary picture, so maybe this person has 10 years of marriage. By looking at lip gloss, mirror and earrings, this person likes to look good. Anti-inflammatory tells that this person has a throat problem. This person might be a person who really cares about if they smell good because there is perfume and peppermint gum in the bag. Fendi card tells me that this person might be a rich person because Fendi is very expensive. Pink Highlighter tells me that this person likes to be organized. Button tells me that she’s very extra-cautious.

Does the boy in the striped pyjamas deal with the sensitive subject of the Holocaust in an appropriate way?

Does the boy in the striped pyjamas deal with the sensitive subject of the Holocaust in an appropriate way?
No, I think the book, 'The Boy In the Striped Pyjamas' doesn't deal with the Holocaust, because John Boyne used a Nazi's point of view. Even though it was a good choice because it didn't make the whole book complicated with fears and horror, I thought Bruno wasn't that serious about what was happening in Germany. Everything that happened was translated to more like 9 years old boy's eyes. Surely, the Holocaust was more serious that when Bruno felt after moving to Outwith. In the real history, people didn't really suffer because of loneliness(well some people did but..) It was all about surviving! food and death. Maybe it would have deal with the subject more in an appropriate way if the author wrote the book in Shumel's point of view. For example, in the first chapter everything was basically about having to move into a new house, it would have been more interesting if John Boyne wrote about Shumel getting into the concentration camp. To add up, I didn't like the face he wrote the book as a Nazi's son's point of view, a Jew's point of view would have really deal it with the reality, showing more fears and horrors.
