Summary: Anne Frank
Review: This is a truly wonderful book. I was surprised to read that some people described this book as "tedious" and another reviewer described Anne as "spoiled and self centered". These are not accurate descriptions of her or the book. Anne Frank went through so much during the course of her short life. What surprised me the most was that through everything that happened, she always had hope. This book takes you through all the difficulties and joys of her teenage years: trials with her parents, her first love, and learning to be grateful for her situation. This book changed my way of thinking. It showed me how much I took for granted, and it opened my eyes and allowed me to see how much these people suffered in one of the most terrifying and evil periods of history.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Opening your eyes into Anne Frank's world!!
Review: Getting stuck in your house with only your family, another family and a dentist, is not exactly fun. That is what happened to Anne Frank, during World War II, while the Nazis were attacking Holland. Anne along with seven other jews went into hiding. This book really opened my eyes away frrom our luxurious homes into what other people went through. After i read this book, it gave me an understanding and a whole new perspective towards life. Anne Frank not only always had and optimistic mind, but also always made the best of her time. Afer reading this book, I have realized that people have to be happy with what hey have, and not always expect more. It is people like Anne Frank, who make a differencee in your life. In order to learn a lot of lifes lessons and understand life and the world we live in, read the amazing diary of Anne Frank. You don't want to miss out on it!!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Great Book by Anne Frank
Review: I read a great book called A Young Girls Diary by Anne Frank. It was a great book because it really explained how hard life was during the 1940's. Anne Frank had a very difficult life. She had to go into hiding and could not eat very much . The Franks had to be careful when they turned on lights, in case someone was outside and saw the light. If you would like to learn more about Anne Frank , get A Diary of A Young Girl by Anne Frank.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Anne Frank- "A mind of her own"
Review: In this essay I am going to persuade you to read the play "The Diary of Anne Frank". I will give you my opinion on the play. I will also state how the authors could improve the play.
I liked the play. It was very interesting. Anne is a very interesting character because she has two personalities in the two acts. I really liked the whole scenario of the play. I really didn't dislike anything but the lack of romance and the argument length. What the authors could've done to make the play better was add more romantic scenes and lengthen the argument scenes. They could've also added an ending to the story telling what happened to the people in the Secret Annex. In conclusion I would like to say that "The Diary of Anne Frank" is a play for the whole family. You would love it!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: play of the ages.
Review: I am making this review to inform you about the book/play "The Diary of Anne Frank."

I think this play,the characters in the play and the thing they have to live with is amazing. If I were in the situation that they were in, I would have been caught the second day.
Not only do these people have to live with each other until the war is over, they have to live with the problem they have with each other as well.
For this play, I give it four and a half stars because I think it was too short.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Interesting
Review: Basic story of survival is always challenging and inspirational. I tried to place myself as a character in the book and could not. At one point I wanted to scream "LOOK IN THE CLOSET!"

Maybe it's me,but the book was pretty predictable.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: makes you grateful for each day
Review: I first read this book in middle school and i thought it was ok but now i am in collage and i decided to reread it. It is much better this time i feel very sad to think of all that anne missed in her life but i am grateful that she has left something behind for us to learn from.

Summary: anne frank and nazi germany
Review: Anne frank was a young girl who grew up during one of the most terrible times during the past century. She was given a diary on her birthday and it documented her nearly every thought, desire, and problem.
When the Nazi party took over Germany, Jews were prosecuted and eventually tagged, sent into concentration camps, and experimented on, and tortured. Millions of Jews died for no reason, because the Nazis blamed them for Germany's hard economical and social problems. They were forced to take showers in chemicals, eat nothing, and live in extreme crowdedness. Anne Frank and her family realized what would eventually happen if they stayed put, so they took shelter in the attic of friendly non-Jews. They lived there for what would have seemed an eternity, living on folding beds, with another family. They could only move at night because someone might report them if they were seen, moving, in the hidden attic above the top floor.
What happened to Anne Frank? You must read this amazing work in order to fully understand the horrors facing a Jew in world war two

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Very Enlightened
Review: This was a very enlightening story of a young Jewish girl who wrote almost everyday in her diary, that she called Kitty. She wrote about everything that was going on in her life. Anne Frank gave me a great understanding of what she went through during the times of the Holocaust. I knew that those times were bad, but i didn't know how bad until I read this book. Even though these were hard times for Anne and her family, she always looked at the bright side of things. For example, when Anne and her family were captured and sent to concentration camps, as horrible as they were, Anne expressed how good it was to be outside again. I definitely recommend this book to everyone, especially to young girls. I guarantee that they won't be able to put this book down.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Incredible story of a true heroine for girls
Review: Growing up, my parents made sure that I knew what happened under the dictatorship of Adolf Hitler. When I was about nine years old, they bought Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl. At first, I didn't think that I would like it, but I began reading it and I couldn't put it down.

This is an amazing story of how anyone can try and overcome even the most difficult situations. It can be heartbreaking at times because you see the pain that Anne and her family had to go through while they were being sought out by the Gestapo.

I think this should be a required book for all people to read. It shares important and insightful thoughts from the mind of a girl that barely anyone actually knew when she was alive, yet people from all over the world feel as though they know from her diary. This is very important and essential for any bookshelf in the world.
