The Diary of a Young Girl

Reader reviewed by Jax

Anne Frank is probably the most well known victim of the Holocaust, and her story will live on forever in the words of her diary.
This book is horrible in some ways, but enlightening in others. Anne really portrays the fear that she held very well. She tells the truth of the Holocaust, one that we do not hear of very often. It's definitely worth the read, just make sure you can emotionally handle the subject...

This book is so sad. I can't belive that it is based on an actual time and place. I feel so bad for Anne and her family and everyone who was also persecuted for their beliefs.

Anne and her family go into hiding and are eventually found. This was a book about how the day to day struggles affected their life. I think that the whole time period was a very sad, depressing time, but the truth is that it was someone's life. People woke up everyday and had to deal with all these complications.

I encourage everyone who likes history to give this book a shot. It is very sad, but you will hopefully have a better understanding of the world then.
