I originally typed out a longer answer to this but: the work has received (valid IMO) criticism for harming Holocaust education.

EDIT: Children were not kept as prisoners in concentration camps. They were exterminated shortly after being deported there.

Is that the one about how the real tragedy of the Holocaust is what happened to the Nazi's kid?

It is crap revisionist history highlighting the mythical “ good nazi”.better to read Night

I dislike the movie and that's not reality because it's ridiculously easy to escape? There is one barbed wire string and then a forest, no dogs, no guards, no fences, no electricity, a kid digs a hole under it (the prisoner kid would have been killed on entrance to the camp). Even as a child it made me angry that they didn't escape, no one would have died in those conditions. It's not realistic and it's disrespectful. Having said so of course the Holocaust is sad

It's not very popular among critics and reddit specially because of it's inaccuracies I think. But I liked it nonetheless... Imo it's a good emotional fictional novel from the pov of a child. Never seen the movie though.
