Anne Frank's Tales from the Secret Annex: A Collection of Her Short Stories, Fables, and Lesser-Known Writings by Anne Frank, Susan Massotty

4.0

Me after reading the book : "I cannot believe that a young girl wrote this book."

My fiance bought me this book (together with The Diary of a Young Girl) when we visited the Bergen Belsen Memorial. They have a small bookshop where you can find books about the history of Bergen Belsen Concentration Camp, Holocaust, and some diaries/journals of WWII survivors.

Tis is a beautiful collection of Anne Frank's journal entries, short stories (both fiction and non-fiction), as well as her unfinished novel. I became her fan after reading The Diary of a Young Girl and I can say that she's a natural born story-teller and writer. This collection shows not only her skills on writing (at a very young age) but also her thoughts about life. Her stories are inspiring, and full of wisdom and love.

Some of my favorite stories from this book are ; Eva's Dream, Happiness, Give, Blurry the Explorer, Why? and Cady's Life.

If you've read and loved her diary, then this is a must-read for you. If not, I would still recommend this for you.
