Summary: 5 Stars
The Diary of Anne Frank is a witty, funny, and sad story that awakens the deepest of emotions and touches the heart; it offers an entirely different perspective of the tragedy that was World War II, from a victim's point of view. This story is for every age and anyone can read it. The book is the modified diary of Anne Frank, a Jew which went into hiding during World War II to avoid the wrath of the Gestapo. This review is intended for those who are looking for an emotional and funny story that they will remember for a lifetime.
The Diary of Anne Frank is an adapted copy of the diary of a young Jewish girl that was in hiding from 1942 to 1944, Anne Frank was a very smart young girl, and the vocabulary used in this diary reflects Anne's descriptive way of speaking. The first entry in the diary begins with when she mentions that she got the diary from Otto Frank, and then goes on to explain she may not devote so much attention to the diary, but was she wrong! A month or two later she starts talking about the things happening in her life, then up to the point in which they go to hide in the Secret Annex, a secluded area hidden by a book case in the office building of Otto Frank's employees. The book is well organized and descriptive.
Anne lived in Germany at the beginning of the book but later she and her family moved to Amsterdam to the Secret Annex, the people mentioned in the book are: Otto Frank (Anne's Father#, Edith Frank #Anne's Mother#, Mr., Mrs., and Peter Van Pels, the family which moved in with the Franks to the Secret Annex, Mr. Kraler, Meip Geise #Otto Frank's Employees), and Mr. Dussel, a Jewish dentist which moved in with the Franks after they went into hiding, he was helped by Mr. Kraler into the Annex. The Diary of Anne Frank is a unique auto-biography type book.
The Diary of Anne Frank is a first-class read for many people of various ages, the keen story and the conflicts between each resident who lived in the Annex will make you hunger for more, definitely worth the $10 at the local book store.
