What Customers Say About Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl - The Definitive Edition:

We must never forget this girl and the many other innocent victims who perished in the Holocaust. Anne dreamed of being a writer and a journalist, but never knew her wish to "go on living even after [her] death" would come true in a literal sense. Sometimes sassy, bratty, and sharp tongued, but always caring, kind, and reflective, it's a crime that her talents were never given a chance to shine in adulthood.

Most of you know that it includes previously removed material about her strained, complicated relationship with her mom, her more saucy comments that convey her frustration with many of the adults in the secret annex, and her developing sexuality. Heartbreaking because her life was cut short not too long after her last entry, the most deep one she'd written. While any edition of Anne Frank's diary is worth reading, I prefer the definitive edition.

Of course it includes the constantly misconstrued "Despite everything, I still believe people are really good at heart line", but that's just the tip of the iceberg. Never. All these things make her more well rounded than in the regular version.

Her progression from a silly school girl to a more mature, introspective young woman is even more striking and heartbreaking.

An overwrought bit of propaganda that has been worth well over $300 billion in aid to Israel over the last several decades.

Her feelings can be shared by millions of women and men.I recommend the book highly. Although Anne was in a situation very few have been in, I believe her diary entries reflect the general mind of teenage girls. Her longing to be loved by Peter (her housemate), her sarcasm and quick wit, and the relationship with her parents are not unique only to Anne. I was shocked at how insightful this young girl was in her entries. It gives the reader a perspective to the war that is rarely seen. The way she discussed such issues as love, religion, politics, a life of anonymity, her relationship with her parents, the war, etc. I tended to forget that Anne was a girl who was only 13-15 years old. were a joy to read.The progression of the diary entries truly showed how Anne matured into a young women.

Although not what I thought I was ordering it arrived in good shape - shipped quickly. My mistake ordering this. It is a teacher's packet regarding Anne Frank.

In some sense it was like reading any young girl's diary. There were even some humorous moments. Anne is a 14 year old girl and despite all that is happening to her, she maintains the sensibilites of a 14 year old girl. It didn't take long for everyone to stop getting along. I have been half wanting to read this book since I, myself was a teenaged girl.

She seems like a charming girl who would have gone far with her life. Good book, I feel now like Anne is friend of mine. Even despite all their stresses, they did try to make holidays and birthdays as special as they could. Being in captivity, as they were, and also being the diary of a young girl, there isn't too much discussion of politics (though there is some and some of the things were news to me). I was impressed with her constant efforts for study and self-improvement. Though I wouldn't recommend this to those seeking to learn a great deal about WWII or the holocaust. Anne seems like she was a very sensible, smart and creative young girl. It's like being a fly on the wall during a moment in history.

It is, of course, a much-lauded book and yet I wasn't certain I could handle another personal account of the holocaust, especially given that this isn't even a survivor's tale.I was surprised to find the book to be a bitter-sweet read. Overall this really is a sweet book which I would recommend, especially to teenagers. It's a sick, sad shame she didn't get the chance. She questions herself and her place in the world, she admonishes those around her, she develops a crush and wonders what love is, etc, etc. It's interesting to see the ways in which every generation is the same and the ways each generation is different.This book also gave a good sense about what it might be like to live under such duress and in such close quarters with a large group of other people.
