The Diary of A Young Girl by Anne Frank

The Diary of Anne Frank is the story of a 13- year-old Jewish girl and her family who are forced into hiding by the Nazis during World War II. Anne Frank's world famous diary charts two years of her life from 1942 to 1944, when her family were hiding in Amsterdam life from German Nazis. The diary begins just before the family retreated into their 'Secret Annexe.' Anne Frank recorded mostly her hopes, frustrations, clashes with her parents and observations of her companions. Its first version, which appeared in 1947, was edited by Anne's father, Otto Frank.
