Boy In the Striped Pajamas..section 1

In my opinion Gretel is a snob. At some moments I just want to slap her! She acts like a know-it-all when she doesn't know anything. Bruno's ignorance makes me sad. He has no clue what's going on. He is so confused. It killed me when they thought they'd be in the new house for just a few weeks. Since they are dealing with the Holocaust previous knowledge tells me they may not even see each other when it's all over. For a while i thought they were hiding. I was thinking danggg they get to hide in a nice spot, not that having to hide is a good thing. However, when they started to describe the area I got really confused. It was like they were describing a concentration camp. But there was no way they would be in a house and at a camp. Also, there is no way they would all be together. When he was saying that they were all divided and wearing match clothing listening to a commander it really sounded like a concentration camp. Right now my guess is his dad's "new job" is working at the concentration camp. Why would the kids be there with him? Where is the story going?
