Book Review:
Anne Frank was a thirteen-year-old Jewish girl when her family went into hiding in a secret annex in Amsterdam to escape Nazi persecution. For two years (1942-1944), she wrote vividly and honestly about her fears, hopes, boredom, and budding womanhood. In August 1944, they were discovered and sent to concentration camps. Anne died in Bergen-Belsen in 1945, aged 15. Only her father, Otto Frank, survived. He published her diary, which has since been read by millions worldwide. The Diary of a Young Girl is not a work of fiction — it is a real, raw, heartbreaking testimony. Anne’s famous words remain: “In spite of everything, I still believe that people are really good at heart.” Essential reading for every human being.
