Pros: Great introspective into Anne Frank's life, Makes you think about your own life
Cons: Somewhat confusing setting, Repetitive at times
Take a moment and think about what your life would be like if you had to stay cooped up in an old, rotten office building for twenty-five months. It would miserable, right? But wait! It gets better! Imagine living in the back of an old, rotten office...

Pros: beautiful, evocative story and real-life diary
Cons: intense
“One day Anne is so sensible and is allowed to know everything; and the next day I hear that Anne is just a silly little goat who doesn’t know anything at all and imagines that she’s learned a wonderful lot from books. I’m not a baby or a spoiled ...

Pros: It ripples with entertainment, love, and discovery
Cons: It has its share of disgust, and its moments of hostility
Anne Frank's diary is tenderly intuitive, a book deemed a classic. However, a lesser designation would not suffice, for Anne Frank, lively, temperamental, clever, and uncertain, succeeded in articulating, in perfect classic form, the drama of puberty....

Pros: Vivid details of a young girl's life
Cons: The knowledge of the potential that was lost
Anne Frank: Holocaust Victim, Tragic Figure, Icon. This is how we think of her. And no wonder. Her diary is possibly the most famous text written during the Holocaust. Movies and plays have been made about her.
When I first read her diary,...

Pros: everything, pretty much. read it.
Cons: slow to begin with.
Reading diary's written by 13 year old girls isn't very high on my priority list, in fact; I have pretty much no interest in ever doing such a thing. But I'd heard the name Anne Frank many times, without really knowing who she was or why she was famous. ...

Pros: Beautifully and honestly written
Cons: Extremely sad and upsetting
I was 12 when I stumbled across a copy of "The Diary of A Young Girl" in my sixth-grade classroom. Curious, and having read everything else available, I started on the book and could not put it down; I sneaked it behind my English book so that...

Pros: an important history lesson written by a memorable young woman
Cons: sad ending
The Diary of Anne Frank is an inspiring self-portrait of a teenage girl struggling to live a normal life in the shadow of the Nazi occupation of Amsterdam. It doesn't focus on any particular historical aspect of the time but rather Anne's personal...

Pros: Thought Provoking
Cons: None
I first read this book when I was in 9th grade. I loved it then and I love it now. The warmth, depth with which she wrote will forever stay with me. She was put in a very difficult situation as they all were. I do think that for the younger ones that It...

Pros: Excellent true, first hand account of what WWII was like for a Jewish youth.
Cons: None!
I first read this book in high school, for a theology project. We had to pick a hero or heroine and write a short biography about them. I'm so glad I chose Anne Frank as my subject!
Anne's diary is the account she kept while in hiding...

Pros: A sincere and clear portrayal of the suffering experienced by the Jews during the Holocaust.
Cons: N/A
It lay on the shelf in my family’s living room for almost two decades. It collected dust and yet it pleaded with my mind, body and soul to be read. While I watched the evening sitcoms at night, it would sit patiently and stare at the top corner of my...
