Letter+(Chapter+3)

May 10th 1942 92 Strudel Avenue, Berlin, Germany Auschwitz, Oswiecim, Poland Dear Karl How are you? I am good. I am also very bored. There is absolutely nobody to play with (except Gretel, but she is a Hopeless Case and I will never play with her). Are you still going to make chaos without me? I tried making chaos here but Mother told me off, even though I said it was Gretel being naughty. I really miss Berlin and my old house and you and Martin and Daniel. Here our house is very small and the only people to play with are the servants and they are no fun so I am very lonely. We have a lot of people living outside my window and they must be tired because they all wear striped pajamas. They are all very skinny and I would like to talk to one of them but Gretel says I can’t because they are Jews and we are Opposite. The Jews have to stay on the other side of the fence and they don’t come over to play which is very rude because I can’t go over there. Gretel is being very annoying. She brought all her dolls and I don’t like them because they all watch me when I go into her room and then they tell her and then she tells Mother and then Mother tells me off. Gretel is also always talking to a mean soldier who calls me little man and I don’t like it because I grew a whole centimeter this year. I don’t even know why I have to stay here with sleepy people and mean soldiers and creepy dolls and Hopeless Cases. It has to do with the Fury having Big Plans for Father, but why does he have to watch some people on a farm? Yours frustratedly Bruno Hermann
