Life

Anne Frank was born in Frankfurt, Germany on June 12th, 1929. Her father, Otto Frank, was a businessman while her mother, Edith, stayed home taking care of Anne and her older sister Margot. Anne was an outgoing child and she had lots of friends. Her family was Jewish and followed some of the Jewish holidays and customs. Anne liked to read and dreamed of being a writer someday.

Anne Frank's Diary

For her 13th birthday Anne received a diary that she had shown her father in a shop window. She began writing in it almost immediately addressing her entries to "Kitty", unaware that in a month she would be forced into hiding for being Jewish.Anne aspired to be a journalist, so she wrote at great length while in hiding, detailing life as she experienced it, as well as writing numerous short stories she hoped one day to publish.

In March 1944, Anne heard a radio broadcast that mentioned the publication of letters and diaries. She began editing her writing and created pseudonyms for the members of the household.

Since its publication, The Diary of a Young Girl has been translated into more than 60 languages.It is considered by many to be one of the most important books of the 20th century.

Anne Frank's Secret Annex

The Frank family hid from the Nazis for two years before they were betrayed and captured. Anne died in a concentration camp, but her diary survived to tell her story.

Famous quotes from the book:

"Always remember this: there are no walls, no bolts, no locks that anyone can put on your mind." "We don't need the Nazis to destroy us. We're destroying ourselves." "I still believe, in spite of everything, that people are really good at heart." "I want to go on living even after I'm dead." "We're not the only people that have had to suffer, there have always been people that've had to."
