Summary: Anne Frank's Diary: A Review
Comment: Anne Franks Diary:The diary of a young girl
Anne Franks Diary is a remarkable book. Written by a young girl in a time of trouble and terror, she writes what she feels, and what is happening around her, in first person. Anne Franks Diary, is an autobiography of her short life. This book takes readers back to the time of power, greed and expresses what life was like. Also known as the Great Depression.
This book is what the world lived through and how this war impacted human beings, of all sorts. I enjoyed this book because of the high intensity of how this young girl felt. She suffered day on end to survive, with family and friends holding on with her.
" Leave me in peace, let me sleep one night at least without my pillow being wet with my tears, my eyes burning and my head throbbing. Let me get away from it all, preferably away from the world." This quote explains the suffering Anne Frank went threw to survive in this hard time.
The reason why I liked this book is because of the honest opinions honest thoughts and feelings. For people that enjoy historical events and the detail be hide them you will enjoy this book like me. The quotes that really come from the inner sprit of Anne Frank, can get to you, with a few powerful feelings, and words. "A voice sobs within me: There you are, That's what's become of you: you're uncharitable, you look
supercilious and peevish, people dislike you and all because you won't listen to the advice given to you by your own better half." I personally like this quote because it explains how Anne changes she becomes more grown up and more marcher.
I found that I really endured this book because of the reality to her life and thoughts. I also found that the sad times or the touching moments really are what put the book together.
Some other quotes that make this book what it is, are these, "I hope I shall be able to confide in you completely, as I have never been able to do before, and I hope that you will be a great support and comfort to me." "I started by being snappy, than unhappy, and finally I twist my heart round again, so that the bad is on the outside and the good is on the inside and keep on trying to find a way of becoming what I would so like to be, and what I could be, If ...... there weren't any other people living in the world."
I think you should read the book, Anne Frank: the Diary of a Young Girl. Enjoy reading.

Summary: It's not about WWII or Nazis
Comment: This is an at times uncomfortably frank (no pun intended)
diary of a girl going through adolescence. This period
in people's lives is typically emotionally charged anyway,
but the social strain of living in very close quarters
with about 10 other people for long periods of time makes
it even worse.
The usual view of this book is that it's about WW II and how evil Nazis are. Some crazy neo-Nazi revisionists have even attacked the book and questioned its authenticity.
I think most people are missing the boat. Nazis hardly appear at all in the story. The diary is mostly about the relationships amoungst the unfortunate people hiding out with Anne. Most of Anne's fellow hideaways come off looking pretty bad; she naturally discusses (and criticizes) the people she's cooped up with much more than she mentions Nazis, whom she basically never sees.
The Diary of a Young Girl is a good book, but it's not a war
story--it's a book about relationships and growing
of age.

Comment: Anne Frank is a young Jewish girl living in Amsterdam during World War II. Anne and her whole family go into hiding with the Van Daans and Mr. Dussel. She must leave everything behind and can't say goodbye to anyone. They hide in an area attached to Mr. Frank's old office building which has come to be known as "The Secret Annexe." Anne stays in the Annexe for three years. She is not allowed to leave and must find ways to amuse herself such as gymnastics, reading, and writing to her diary Kitty. Anne grows closer with the Van Daans and the rest of her family. This book is about Anne's life and struggles while hiding in the Secret Annexe, such as lack of food and what is discused among the Secret Annexe inhabitants. Anne also tells Kitty about the people who risked their lives by helping her family while in hiding, and what she does in her spare time. During the day everyone in the Annexe could not talk or move for fear that people would hear them and tell the police where they were hiding. This book deals with the will to survive under terrible conditions and being a Jew during World War II.
