By the end of the book, it gave me a good amount of cry and darn, I was in the library that time.

3.5 stars. The writing was excellent in the way that it set Anne’s story around the greater backdrop of what was happening but I didn’t care for the art. I would suggest The Faithful Spy as a similar graphic novel with better artwork.

Incredible Graphic Novel, I would highly recommend.

A very quick read - finished it in under two hours. The story itself is obviously well-known and tragic, but this book didn't really do anything more than it had to.

"Human greatness does not lie in wealth or power, but in character and goodness." Anne Frank

this was a good primer for someone who is going to read anne frank: diary of a young girl. it spans her entire life and so it covers alot of the political background of the time (even things that anne herself doesn't comment on in her diary). there are lots of asides that are labelled 'snapshots' and they do a good job of expaining world events or political movements in the context of her life. all in all, a great book that will emphasize - once again - that anne frank was not only a real person, but also a real talent that was lost when nazism spread across europe.
