ERoberts, January 28, 2007 (view all comments by ERoberts)
To be honest, I wasn't looking forward to reading this. We had been doing an extremely long unit on the Holocaust, and reading "The Diary of Anne Frank" was our final assignment. I had heard enough about Anne Frank to last me good into my Senior year (I was in 8th grade). But when I began reading it, my opinion changed dramatically. I felt like I was Anne, going through her relationship woes and growing pains. And I was reduced to tears by the end; an inconsolable wreck. What can I say, I was a teenage girl.

But even if you're not a teenager, you'll still find this book to be extremely sad -- I'm sure of it. And I bet you'll love this book as much as I did... maybe even more! It is a classic that I think all people should read, not only to learn about the Holocaust, but also to learn about the human mind and how even in the midst of disaster, a postive outlook can change everything.
