Anne Frank
Anne Frank is about a girl who wrote a diary about her life. The main charecters are Anne and her family. The main problems are that they're Jewish and the Germans were prejudice against Jewish people at that time. The Germans were sending them to concentration camps. My favorate character was Anne because she is a really brave girl who writes a diary about her life and her terrible tragedy.

I could relate to Anne Frank because I come from another country where I was born and I also was having security problems there. I think I feel the same things she felt because sometimes I feel fear to be in Colombia, my native country. That's what she also felt.

I liked the book a lot, and I didn't have a favorite part of the book, because I liked the whole book...

I would recommend this book to people because I think it's really interesting and it's a true story. If I had to be someone in the book, I would be Anne because I would like to be recognized as a great writer in history.

This is great! You should read it....
I just finished reading this book yesterday! I thought it was excellent... I'm Jewish so I kind know a lot about what happened during the 1940's and this book had it right. Even the Hebrew (which was in english) was right. Plus, the plot and characters in this seemed so real. I would recommend this to everyone. However it has some bad lanugage and some teen and adult contact. But besides that it was wonderful!

Over 225 black and white photos, many never before published
This resource for fans of Frank's Diary is a photo essay of over 225 black and white photos, many never before published, compiled by the Anne Frank House for a travelling exhibition. Images in the book are dedicated to preserving the history of not only Frank but the Holocaust and how its issues affect contemporary life: images thus are gleaned from the extent of the war and its aftermath and detail not just Frank's life but the experiences of all sides.

I loved this book!!
I loved this book, and it is very hard to find a book that I like. This book is probably my favorite book so far, and I am only twelve. I usually like mysteries, but I guess that I like journals too. Also, this book inspired me to write a journal and just wish that it would be as famous as hers. And Anne's dream was to be famous. Now, she is.

A superb collection!
As part of my effort to learn my role as the dentist in the 1955 version of the play at the local junior college, I read some 14 or 15 books by and about Anne Frank and this one capped my study quite nicely. I recommend it as the one to read after "The Definitive Edition" (or the fascinating "Critical Edition", if you're up to that), Willy Lindwer's "The Last Seven Months", Melissa Muller's "Anne Frank: The Biography", Miep Gies' "Anne Frank Remembered", and Eva Schloss' "Eva's Story". It's scholarly, well edited and footnoted, and has a fine bibliography.

A story of courage
Anyone who has read this book or anything else about Anne Frank knows that she was one of the most courageous people to ever have lived. A thirteen-year-old girl who lived out the last two years of her life in hiding but still managed to stay cheerful, even though there were many people around and arguments over little things. Anybody that could spend two years locked in a confined space and not lose their mind is a very brilliant person indeed, and that Anne Frank was. This book tells of Anne Franks life, from her point of view, during the time she and her family, and freinds, lived in 'the secret annex.'

Two great accounts of two great expeditions
This new book combines Charles Laseron's 1947 "South With Mawson" and Frank Hurley's 1948 "Shackleton's Argonauts" in one volume, continuing the wonderful flood of reprints relating to the heroic era of Antarctic exploration. Laseron's account of the 1912 Mawson expedition is full of human interest, and makes a useful adjunct to Mawson's own, somewhat drier account in "Home of the Blizzard." Laseron was a careful observer of his surroundings and his fellow expedition members, and his writing style is vivid and often humorous. This half of the book includes photographs by expedition photographer Frank Hurley, whose own memoirs of the Endurance voyage make up the second half of the book. Frank Hurley's "Shackleton's Argonauts" is a gripping description of the Endurance expedition, also illustrated with some of Hurley's magnificent photographs. Having served with both Sir Douglas Mawson and Sir Ernest Shackleton, Hurley compares the two men in a couple of wonderful paragraphs, concluding "Shackleton grafted science onto exploration; Mawson added exploration onto science," a very good way of summing up the differences between the leaders. Hurley also shows himself to have been an early environmentalist, and expresses in no uncertain terms his horror of the South Atlantic whaling industry and its slaughter of those great animals, commenting "I had marvelled at the devices that enabled man's ingenuity to triumph over nature's moods and most powerful creatures, but I marvelled still more that man was unable to triumph over the seemingly more potent monster of his creating; its name is greed," to which I can only add, "amen." Anyone interested in Antarctic exploration will want to add this valuable reprint to their library, and I cannot recommend it more highly.
