Book Reviews of Anne Frank's Tales from the Secret Annex
Book Review: A young girl's brilliance and gift for writing shines through
Summary: 5 Stars
I first read Anne Frank's The Diary of a Young Girlwhen I was ten, almost three decades ago, and have since read up almost anything I can find on this remarkable young woman. I've taught Anne Frank's diary in literature and history classes, and I'm always heartened to see my students' overwhelming response to the diary. It is indeed hard to imagine such a young and brilliant life be forced into hiding and living a life of fear and isolation during the Holocaust. Yet despite these trials, Anne's indomitable spirit shines through her writing, and her diary has become her enduring legacy to humanity.
In "Tales from the Secret Annex", we get to read stories written by Anne, her reminiscences and an unfinished novel. Her talent is very obvious from the well-crafted stories - she certainly had the gift for narrative writing, and her characters show a certain level of depth and insight, remarkable considering the author was only a young teenager when she penned these stories. A must-have for YA collections and as a supplement to "Diary of a Young Girl."
Summary of Anne Frank's Tales from the Secret Annex
The candid, poignant, unforgettable writing of the young girl whose own life story has become an everlasting source of courage and inspiration.Hiding from the Nazis in the ?Secret Annex? of an old office building in Amsterdam, a thirteen-year-old girl named Anne Frank became a writer. The now famous diary of her private life and thoughts reveals only part of Anne?s story, however. This book rounds out the portrait of this remarkable and talented young author.
Newly translated, complete, and restored to the original order in which Anne herself wrote them in her notebook, Tales from the Secret Annex is a collection of Anne Frank?s lesser-known writings: short stories, fables, personal reminiscences, and an unfinished novel, Cady?s Life.
