Again and again – Lieutenant Kotler calls Pavel a certain word, after asking him to get a tire for Bruno.
This again and again gives information about a character, Lieutenant Kotler specifically. Since he is a soldier at the concentration camp, he automatically has hatred for the Jews. Him repeating the word that he is calling Pavel, automatically shows that it is probably a rude word, which adds onto his hatred.
Chapter 4 – page 35
Tough questions – Bruno and Gretel question the people outside the window, at the camp in the distance.
This tough question develops the plot. It develops the plot because it lets the reader know that there is indeed a camp in the distance, and it could become important later on in the story. It also allows the reader to think, maybe about what the camp might be and why it might be there. (Even though it is quite obvious.)

Memory Moment- Maria explains to Bruno how she met his father and how she became his maid.
This Memory Moment gives insight about father. It says that he is a nice man and helps Maria after her mother died. This is surprising because of his profession.
Chapter 5- pg. 42
Contrasts and Contradictions- Bruno compares soldiers to father.
This Contrast and Contradiction shows that Bruno understands that father is higher up in the ranks than the other soldiers. Another reason that shows he is higher up is that his uniform is more decorated.

Tough Questions- The reason that this is a tough question is because they are thinking out loud one thing that they are saying is “If it’s a farm then don’t you think that the ground would look a lot better.”
This is a Tough Question because it shows the reader that both Bruno and Gretel don’t really know what the camp is used for “or to them the Farm”. This tells us that both Bruno and Gretel are not told much about fathers’ job yet.
Chapter 8 pg. 89
Memory Moments- This is a memory moment because Bruno is thinking about his last Christmas and what happened with Grandma and Father.
This is a Memory Moment because it kind of tells some background information of what Bruno’s Grandma thinks of Fathers new job.

Words of the Wiser- Bruno thinks, after he looked like Shumel, that we are “all exactly the same really”
This words of the wiser makes the reader think because not everyone expects a nine-year-old, whose father is a commandant, to think that Jews and Germans are all the same.
Chapter 6-pg. 60
Aha Moment- Bruno and Maria are talking about “Out-With” and Bruno, unlike Gretel, considers Maria a person.

Words of the wiser: After Bruno fell off the swing Pavel picked him up and brought him in sides. He says “Don’t make it worse by thinking it’s more painful than it actually is.”
This Words of the wiser pushes the plot forward because it not only tells how Bruno and Pavel are getting along it also tells how he used to be a doctor. They then start having conversation and Bruno finds that his job was taken away from him.
Chapter 5: pg.53
Contrast and Contradictions: Bruno is talking with his father and they are arguing about the camp/Jews. Father then tells Bruno that they aren’t people.
The Contrast and Contradictions pushes the plot forward because it is saying that father is trying to tell Bruno that he shouldn’t consider them as people. It really contributes to they story because not a while later Bruno finds a Jew and becomes friends with him.

This Contrast and Contradictions provides info/ insight about a character because it shows how Bruno’s father is treated better than the rest of the soldiers. He has everything better than the rest of the soldiers and it seems as if they look up to him.

Aha Moment – Bruno has the idea of going under the fence to help Shmuel find Papa.

Memory Moment- He remembers one of the Christmases from a few years go. He remembers how Father came down the stairs with his new uniform on.
The memory moment moves the story along because Bruno because he doesn’t completely know what it means. He doesn’t understand why it is such a big deal or why everyone was clapping.
Chapter 5 – pg. 53
Tough Questions – Bruno asked his dad, “Who are all those people outside?” Bruno is just a kid and he doesn’t really understand what Herr List is trying to teach him.
This tough question moves the story along because it tells the reader that he doesn’t understand. He didn’t understand what his father was telling him when he said that they are not people at all. In Bruno’s mind they are people.

Compare and contrast- Shmuel and Bruno talked about their past and how bad the trains were. They talked about how different their pasts were such as Shmuel got kicked out of his home and Bruno didn’t.
This compare and contrast makes the reader think how you should treat people because it shows how much people got treated differently and that you should always treat people with kindness.
Chapter 12, page 127
Tough Question- “But they’re different aren’t they?”
This is meaning that the Nazi and Jew sign are different and Shmuel had one on his arm and Bruno noticed it.
This tough question gives information on the characters showing that there were labels on people to know the difference because Nazis used to think that Jews were “DIFFERENT”.

Aha- Bruno finally finds out that that on the other side of the fence are Jews and learns this from Gretel
This Aha moment is about being aware of your surroundings because Bruno had never really noticed or listen to the people around him saying the things about the camp and realizing the people in the camp are Jews.
Chapter 16 – pg. 180
Contrast and conidiation – Gretel’s room from before Kotler left vs after Kotler left

Chapter 3 – pg.27
Aha moment- “The other children,” Gretel. “You said they don’t look at all friendly”. She finally got a clue what Bruno was talking about the farmers.

Again, and again- A dot became a speck and that became a blob and that became a figure. This is when Bruno goes to see Shmuel for the last time.

Chapter three pages 30-38
Contrast and contradictions- garden v. c.c., tough questions- who would build such a nasty looking place, when Bruno was looking out his window at the camp.
