Biography / History

In her diary, Anne Frank

revealed the challenges and

dreams common for any

young girl. But Hitler brought

her childhood to an end and

forced her and her family into

hiding. This book looks closely

at Anne’s life before the secret

annex, what life was like in

hiding, and the legacy of her

diary. Illustrations, maps, and

diagrams provide historical

and visual reference in a

biography written in a way that

is appropriate and accessible for

younger readers.
