Anne frank-Maera Tahau

Anne frank
author: lois metzger
9/20

Anne frank is well known around the world for her diary "the secret annex". This book is not the copy of the diary in fact it is one of the many well known collections of her diary. This book features parts and quotes from her diary. But it also explains her life including:what school she went to and lots of background pieces written in her diary. Anne Frank and her family were unfortunately captured and were sent to concentration camps.Anne died on the 4th of august 1944. I recommend this book for anyone that wants to learn A bit about Annes experiences and history.
