The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas
Chapter One
Bruno Makes a Discovery
one afternoon when Bruno came home from school he was surprised to find Maria the familys maid who always kept her head bowed and never looked up from the carpet standing in his bedroom pulling all his belongings out of the wardrobe and packing them in four large wooden crates even the things that hed hidden at the back that belonged to him and were nobody elses business what are you doing he asked in as polite a tone as he could muster for although he wasn’t happy to come home and find someone going through his possessions his mother had always told him that he was to treat Maria respectfully and not just imitate the way father spoke to her You take your hands off my things maria shook her head and pointed towards the staircase behind him where Brunos mother had just appeared She was a tall woman with long red hair that she bundled into a sort of net behind her head and she was twisting her hands together nervously as if there was something she didn’t want to have to say or something she didnt want to have to believe mother said Bruno marching towards her whats going on Why is Maria going through my things
shes packing them explained Mother. packing them he asked, running quickly through the events of the previous few days to consider whether hed been particularly naughty or had used those words out loud that he wasn’t allowed to use and was being sent away because of it. He couldnt think of anything though In fact over the last few days he had behaved in a perfectly decent manner to everyone and couldnt remember causing any chaos at all Why he asked them What have I done mother walked into her own bedroom by then but Lars the butler was in there packing her things too She sighed and threw her hands in the air in frustration before marching back to the staircase followed by Bruno who wasnt going to let the matter drop without an explanation. mother he is insisted Whats going on Are we moving come downstairs with me said Mother leading the way towards the large dining room where the Fury had been to dinner the week before Well talk down here bruno ran downstairs and even passed her on the staircase so that he was waiting in the dining room when she arrived He looked at her without anything for a moment and had thought to himself that she couldnt have applied her make up correctly that morning because the rims of her eyes were more red than usual like his own after hed been causing chaos and got into trouble and ended up crying now you dont have to worry Bruno said Mother sitting in the chair where the beautiful blonde woman who had come to dinner with the Fury had sat and waved at him when Father
closed the doors In fact if anything its going to be a great adventure what is he asked Am I being sent away no not just you she said as if she might smile for a moment but thinking better of it We all are Your father and I Gretel and you All four of us bruno thought about this and frowned He wasnt particularly bothered if Gretel was being sent away because she was a Hopeless Case and caused nothing but trouble for him But it seemed a little unfair that they all had to go with her but where he asked Where are e going exactly Why cant we stay here your fathers job explained Mother You know how important it is dont you yes of course said Bruno nodding his head because there were always so many visitors to the house men in fantastic uniforms women with typewriters that he had to keep his mucky hands off – and they were always very polite to Father and told each other that he was a man to watch and that the Fury has big things in mind for him well sometimes when someone is very important continued Mother the man who employs him asks him to go somewhere else because there’s a very special job that needs doing there what kind of job asked Bruno because if he was honest with himself which he always tried to be he wasnt entirely sure what job Father did
in school they had talked about their fathers one day and Karl had said that his father was a greengrocer which Bruno knew to be true because he ran the greengrocers shop in the centre of town And Daniel had said that his father was a teacher which Bruno knew to be true because he taught the big boys who it was always wise to steer clear of And Martin had said that his father was a chef which Bruno knew to be true because he sometimes collected Martin from School and when he did he did he always wore a white smock and a tartan apron as if hed just stepped out of his kitchen but when they asked Bruno what his father did he opened his mouth to tell them, then realised that he didnt know himself All he could say was that his father was a man to watch and that the Fury had big things in mind for him Oh and that he had a fantastic uniform too it’s a very important job said Mother hesitating for a moment A job that needs a very special man to do it You can understand that cant you and we all have to go too asked Bruno Of course we do said Mother You wouldn’t want Father to go to his new job on his own and be lonely there would you I suppose not said Bruno father would miss us all terribly if we weren’t with him she added who would he miss the most asked Bruno Me of Gretel He would miss you both equally said Mother for she was such a great believer in not playing favourites which Bruno respected especially since he knew that he was her favourite really But what about our house asked Bruno
whos going to take care of it while were gone Mother sighed and looked around the room as if she might never see it again It was a very beautiful house and had five floors in total if you included the basement where Cook made all the food and Maria and Lars sat at the table arguing with each other and calling each other names that you weren’t supposed to use And if you added in the little room at the top of the house with the slanted windows where Bruno could see right across Berlin if he stood up on his tiptoes and held onto the frame tightly We have to close up the house for now said Mother But well come back to it someday And what about Cook asked Bruno And Lars and Maria Are they not going to line in it theyre coming with us explained Mother But thats enough questions for now Maybe you should go upstairs and help Maria with your packing Bruno stood up from the seat but didnt go anywhere There were just a few more questions he needed to put to her before he could allow the matter to be settled
Personal Pronouns Subject pronouns can be used to substitute a noun in the subject position in a sentence. Singular I You He She It Plural We You They Example: Martha works for a cellular company. She has to travel to Orlando every week. Note on usage: Keep in mind that a name or noun should be used first to establish a frame of reference in a conversation or a piece of writing. Exceptions to this rule would be in creative writing, story telling, or when using the pronouns you and I.
Possessive Pronouns Possessive pronouns are used to show possession. They are not used with an apostrophe or to modify a noun. They serve their purpose on their own. Singular Mine Yours His Hers Its Plural Ours Yours Theirs Examples: This scientific discovery is theirs. I want mine to go there.
Exercise: Identify the pronouns in the following sentences and work out
whether they are personal or possessive.
