Summary: WHAT WOULD THE WORLD BE LIKE IF WE WERE ALL LIKE MIEP?
Review: Be prepared. This book will take your mind and body back to the war years. You will feel the suffering, not only of the Jews, but the Dutch people under German occupation.It also serves as an independent witness to many of the events Anne described in her Diary. This was dramatized in a made for television movie about 10 years ago. Miep and her husband Henk opened their home and hearts to Otto Frank for seven years after the war. They helped preserve his post-concentration camp sanity and gave him strength to live. Had Miep read the Diary after Anne's capture, she states that she'd have had to burn it since it implicated people as hiders of Jews. Thankfully, Miep did not read it until years later. Even with Otto Frank's post-war encouragement, it was simply too painful for her to read. The miracle of the Diary's survival and gift to the world is due to Miep's remarkable courage and mysterious fate.

Summary: A Keeper!
Review: Everyone that has read the Diary of Anne Frank has a pretty good handle on what life was like hiding in 'het achterhuis', but this book describes those 2 years from a different angle; from that of a protector. This book takes you through the life of Miep Gies from her days in Austria, to when she gained her Dutch citizenship and when she, along with the other office staff, hid the 8 Jews in hiding. This book is a must for anyone that has ever read any of Anne Frank's works.

Summary: Excellent Book!
Review: I borrowed a copy of this book from the library a week ago, read it, and cannot put it down. I have learned a lot from reading this book. For example, I did not know that Mrs. Van Daan was a gourmet cook until now. Miep Gies is one of the most interesting and amazing people I have read about and her telling her side of what happened to the Franks, Van Daans and Dr. Dussel, plus other people is very informative. If you like Anne's book "Diary of a Young Girl", you will also like this book too. You won't be disappointed.

Summary: Completely riveting!
Review: I bought the book for my son, who wanted to read it, but I started to read it myself and couldn't put it down! I had read Ann's diary, and this book is just the perfect counterpart. Not only did I learn about Miep and her brave co-workers, but I learned even more about Ann, her family, and those who hid with the Franks in the attic. It is sad, beautiful and triumphant all at the same time.

Summary: A VERY INTERESTING AND VERY INFORMATIVE BOOK.
Review: I find ANNE FRANK REMEMBERED by Miep Gies and Alison Leslie Gold very interesting and very informative. It was written by the woman who knew first-hand what happened behind the bookcase. Miep Gies was one of the lifeline that saved Anne, her family, and friends for as long as it did. Their memories must never be forgotten. I highly recommend this book to anybody interestested in Anne Frank or the Holocaust.

Summary: Would you?
Review: I think many of us would like to think that if a family that we know well is in dire need, we would go to extreme measures to help them in any way we can. But if it came down to a life-and-death decision, I wonder how many people would have made the same decision that brave Miep Gies made to help out the Franks. She details this decision, and her years of helping the Franks hide in the little apartment behind her office, in her well-told book "Anne Frank Remembered". Part memior, part rememberance of Anne herself, this book details the life of Miep, from a little girl born in Vienna, to her migration to Amsterdam. She becomes an office worker in Otto Frank's pectin business, and her history is now set. Soon, due to Hitler's oppresive policies against the Jews, the Franks must go into hiding to survive. Miep recounts details of her assistance in helping keep the Franks, the Van Daans and Albert Dussel alive. In fact, this book is a brilliant piece of writing to accompany Anne Frank's diary. While Anne details life inside the Annex, we find out from Miep what she was doing outside. Together, they paint a complete picture of the horror and danger of their daily lives. And when Anne's diary stops before that faithful day, Miep's story continues. She bravely tries to bribe the Franks out of captivity to no avail. Whereas Anne is probably the most "famous" Frank, Miep does talk about her from time to time, knowing that we would want to know her impressions of the little girl. She offers some touching, poignant insights to Anne, making her seem more real, if that's possible. Detailing Anne growing out of her clothes, which Anne domcuments herself in her diary, is a particular moment that shows us Anne having to grow up, imprisioned becuase of her religion and for her safety. Without a doubt, Miep and all of the people who aided the Franks in the Annex are heroes. This time of history had many thousands of heroes, many of them unsung. Fortuantely, we have a well-documented life of Anne and we can spend as much time as possible with them, thanks to these books.
