Editorial reviews
This installment of Nicolas Soames’ engaging and informative Famous People in History series, geared toward middle-school children, provides an enlightening overview of the two precarious years Anne and the rest of the Frank family spent in their secret annex hiding from the terrifying grasp of the Nazis.
Katinka Wolf’s soothing tone and compassionate readings of excerpts from Anne’s diary lend a sense of humanism to this glimpse into the life of a remarkable young girl with an indomitable spirit in the face of the most dire of circumstances.
