The book is good, so far, it is different because it is told from Bruno's POV and he see's the world so differently because he is only 9 (in the book).....

Yes, I read the book a week after seeing the movie. In the book, he is 9 and in the movie he is 8.
In some ways, the manner in which the book is written is similar to that book of George Orwell's "Animal Farm", in that it can be read on a very basic, "face value" sort of way, and then also on a deeper layered-level sort of way.
