Boy in the Striped PJ's Chapter 10

(105) What does the progression of 'dot' to 'boy' tell us about the role of exploring and meeting the people in the camp? What does this represent about how other Germans view the Jews? It shows that the closer one gets to a Jewish person the more they realize that they are actually people. Nazi's only see the Jews mentally from a far and do not talk to them and get to know them this is why they see them as dots or blobs but if they got to know them and became closer to them they would soon realize that they are just like everyone else. 
(109) What effect does the boys both having the same birthday have? That they are extremely similar and have a lot in common. They are both on the other side of the war yet they are still best friends and they almost have a brotherly characterization towards them. The Nazi's and Jews are fighting a tragic war but two boys from both sides are able to befriend each other and throughout this chapter they point out the similarities within each other. The Nazi's don't think the Jews are human yet here is a Nazi child becoming best friends with a Jew.
(113-4) What do Bruno and Shmuel 'argue' about? What does Bruno decide to stop the argument? Bruno and Shmuel briefly argue about whether Shmuel's side of Poland is better or or Bruno's Berlin is better. They both rudely say that there town is much better for it's people or it's drinks or it's cafe's. After Shmuel says that Poland is obviously a lot better Bruno decides not to linger on the argument and carry on the criticism as he does not want to upset his new best friend. For if he did then the atmosphere for the two would be a lot different and they might not be friends anymore. 
(115) What does Bruno's last question reveal to Shmuel? What do you think Shmuel thinks of Bruno because of asking this question? I think that when Bruno asked this question it was quite obvious to Shmuel that Bruno knew nothing of the atrocities and what is happening to the Jews. This might show Shmuel that not all the Germans are the same and that some people are not aware of what is happening. Also he must think that Bruno does not know much of the war either as he does not know what a Jew is, it is just another word to him. Shmuel might now think that Bruno is quite shut off from the facts of the real world and there must be others just like Bruno that do not know of the Concentration Camps.
