Autobiography of Anne Frank I was born on the 12th June 1929 in the German city of Frankfurt. I felt German and then Jewish‚ my friends were a mixed bunch and religion never really came into my life.

Entry 1: In contrast to later entries‚ Anne’s early writings hardly mention her family members. Anne briefly introduces her family‚ but until they go into hiding‚ they do not seem to play a large role in Anne’s daily thoughts.

To be sure‚ writings of dubious and fleeting merit frequently enchant the public‚ but there is too the occasional author who garners widespread acclaim

After reading Anne Frank: Diary of a Young Girl‚ a personal diary of a girl named Anne who lived in hiding during World War II‚ I believe Anne’s wise words: that no matter what the situation‚ every person is still good at heart‚ whether you can see it or not. My opinion on this topic was greatly influenced by reading this extremely personal memoir of Anne’s life in hiding and the people in the world around her.
