Publisher Description
Hiding from the Nazis in the "Secret Annexe" of an old office building in Amsterdam, a thirteen-year-old girl named Anne Frank became a writer. The now famous diary of her private life and thoughts reveals only part of Anne's story, however. This book completes the portrait of this remarkable and talented young author.
Tales from the Secret Annex is a complete collection of Anne Frank's lesser-known writings: short stories, fables, personal reminiscences, and an unfinished novel. Here, too, are portions of the diary originally withheld from publication by her father. By turns fantastical, rebellious, touching, funny, and heartbreaking, these writings reveal the astonishing range of Anne Frank's wisdom and imagination--as well as her indomitable love of life. Anne Frank's Tales from the Secret Annex is a testaments to this determined young woman's extraordinary genius and to the persistent strength of the creative spirit.
Customer Reviews
Pretty good
This is a very sad book but good at the same time I would recommend it
Accidental purchase
May I please get me refund I bought the wrong one
Not so much…
Yeah, yeah, I know, the book was sad and all. But this is only one story out of the millions of other stories from the victims of the Holocaust. I found the book to be very confusing and boring. It is written like a diary, which is to be expected. But it seems that everyday is the same as the previous, the humdrum lifestyle of the "Secret Annexe." I know I'm probabaly not going to be liked since Anne Frank's diary is the second most read book in the world next to the Bible, bit I still would not recomend ut ti waste your valuable time on.
