Kids book with minimal details that skipped over a big part of her life story. Went from the Secret Annex to her dad publishing her diaries.

A very informative book. It has a lot of information and it is written in a way that is kid friendly. I also talks about both her own life and what was going on during the time period.

An illustrated biography for young readers, this one describes Anne’s life before she and her family had to go into hiding, what her life was like while in hiding, and how her diary has affected generations after her.

This was a great book!! I read it for a book report. It was one of those books where you want to find out what happens in the end, but you don't ever want to finish it.

An okay read about Anne Frank's short life, which is convenient considering how short these books are usually anyway. There are better books about Anne Frank, even for kids, and they have real pictures instead of silly cartoons. Parents, do yourself a favor. Don't treat your kids like complete morons. Find something better than the Who Was series.

Another book read with my daughter. An interesting biography on Anne Frank.
It's amazing how the Franks spent more than 650 days hiding in the annex with little comforts. (And people complain about the lockdown).
It's important to remember what happened during those terrible war years. How terrible decisions can lead to even more terrible outcomes.
