I was about twelve when I first read Anne`s diary. A Jewish French girl had come to stay with us to learn English and she commented that I looked very much like Anne Frank. I went out the next week and bought the diary. It is hard to imagine how human beings can be so wicked and cruel to each other. This book is an inspiration to all of us. Anne always believed in seeing the best in people and her dream was to become a famous writer. She is now very famous for her writings, and this human tragedy should never be forgotten. |

Anne Frank's diary, shows us belief, hope, and more. It shows us the truth. That all are the same inside. All those who read it find ourselves crying to sleep over words written long ago. Words that tell of a girl who was like everyone else but was persecuted for being different. |

As a mother of 7 children and grandmother of 8, I cannot imagine what life must have been like for Anne and her family. I have read a little of the words in her diary but I have to come back to it later. I started to cry when I realized her words are still as creative and powerful as the day they were written. |

My third grade daughter had to choose an historic person to do a book report on. She choose Anne Frank. A week prior to this, I introduces the holocaust to her by trying to explain to her what happened in WWII. I felt that as a Jewish girl, she should know this and I wanted her to hear it from me so I can reassure her that she is safe. When I read Anne Frank's diary, I was probably 8 or 9 years old. I was born and raised in Israel, so the holocaust was something that was told to us at least once a year since there is a "Holocaust day" in Israel to remember the 6 million Jews that were murdered. It is amazing to think of this horrible event and see it through the eyes of a teenage girl that couldn't have "Normal" life like the rest of us. Anne Frank taught my daughter that no matter what happens, she is a proud Jewish young girl and even though Anne is not here in her body, she is defiantly here in her soul, her thoughts and her stories. Her diary symbolized that with all the hard reality that took place - we are still here! |

I read the Diary of Anne Frank, last year when I was 15 years old, and I couldn't believe how much I could relate to her, in some ways I believed that I was Kitty and Anne was explaining her life to me. We share the same hopes and beliefs and was when I finished the diary I realised with a jolt that the author had died when she was my age, before her 16th birthday. I have made Anne a personal reserch topic in my studies and I wish to find out more about the Holocaust that claimed Anne's and millions of other lives. |

I was searching the internet for information to share with my sixth grade students as we discuss WWII. I cannot tell you how moved I was by the information on this web site. It is told beautifully. What a message for the world!!
I read the Diary of Anne Frank when I was in the fourth or fifth grade. In a way, it has effected my entire life. I am now an attorney specializing in helping people who have been discriminated against in their or housing. Anne Frank was the voice that first made me aware of how destructive and insidious discrimination can be |

A day in the life of Anne Frank can only bring fear and anger to those who read her writings. She remains the eternal optomist in a world gone mad. She teaches us the value of every day you spend in this world. Her essay "Give" remains so timely even now in our world of having it all. Stop and read and listen to the words of this precocious scholar of human kind. |
