It's a short read and can be read in 1 or 2 sittings. In the "movie tie-in" version that I bought (the cover has a photo from the movie on the cover), they have little discussion questions at the back also.
For example, Bruno hears and pronounces the "Auschwitz" camp as "Out-With". But this term "out-with" is a (non-funny) pun as well, as in
"Out with certain groups of people who exist in society". ("Out-with"/Auschwitz is never expressly mentioned nor referred to in the movie.).
I still think of this movie...the story haunts me, I guess you could say.
