Have you ever read "The diary of Anne Frank?"

It is an awesome book. I remember when my son 'read' it. He had learning disabilities and struggled through it with a lot of help. He thought the book was incredible and it gave me a lot of insight into how wonder my son was -- he wrote a book report -- It started something like this - If Anne Frank was alive today, we would be friends. He then told how she had so much more in common with him then there were differences...in spite of the fact that she lived 50 years before him, in a different country and a different religion.

I have read that book in my childhood days. It was one of the most boring books that I have ever read. I liked stories about American Indians and cowboys much better. No, I really did not like that book.

i first read it as an undergraduate and it is extremely moving. When i started teaching I realised just how important it is as a historical document blessed be

When I was supposed to read it in book form, I only read bits and pieces (I'm not the best reader). Later, I read it on audio and really got into it. I would have probably gone crazy hiding like that. Especially back then. No computers (and even if you did have one, I suppose the internet wouldn't be an option in hiding). All she had was books to read. If I had nothing to do, I'd probably just kill myself after a month figuring that if the Germans got me, I'd be killed anyway.

oh goodness, i read that YEARS and YEARS ago. i need to go back and read it again. it is a fascinating story, my what a life she lead. so strong willed, and brave.

I read the book when I was in 8th grade. It was a huge heartache to read. We also had to watch this graphic movie on the holocaust in school. Because once mt mind gets interested in things that means I need to know more so I watched anything I could on T.V. about the holocaust. All of it tore my heart out, but I couldn't help wanting to know more. Maybe, it was because of how bad my life was, and before then I didn't think anyone could be treated as badly as I was.

I read the book many years ago and found it so moving, really heart-breaking. If you liked "The Diary of Anne Frank," you should see the recent film, "Freedom Writers," with Jennifer Garner. The story is based on a real life teacher, who brings the book to her class of "unteachable" kids, and they are transformed. They begin to write their own stories, many of which are just as sad, in their own way.

i have not read the book could you please tell me the name of the author i would definitely like to read the book,

I have never read the book but I have watched the movie. It's a very beautiful movie, I have watched it when I was at school.

I'm gonna get this book again and read it. I want my daughter to read it too. It is an amazing story. I often tell people that I like history because they are aventure and drama stories that really happened. This is one of the most heart-rending books ever written.

I had to read this book for school for English class and the discussions we had during and following the reading were so difficult to contribute to and explore. Like you, I would've been terrified if I were in her shoes . . . I couldn't even imagine living under such circumstances. Her courage has always touched me, as well as her ability to write about such a difficult period in her life. I don't know if I'd be able to write that way. I think I'd be too afraid. I might write, but not of the actual events . . . I think it would be too difficult for to write about the actual events, even though I'm sure it would be on my mind all the time.

I have read it before. I had to read it for school. But its been so long i dont really remember the whole thing. I agree with you its a very sad situation that she had to go through. At least she had her faith if she had nothing else.

To be honest "I dont like the book"Boring! thay's all...

I have read it many times (probably about 2-3 times a year since I was about 12 I am 27 now) I have all Anne Frank related books at home (About Otto, The Frank Family, Miep, Beyond the Diary)

I read her diary when I was in school, not as a school project, just for my own pleasure reading. It was a very sad story, but I am glad that it was made public. We have a lot to learn from the history of the world, and from different cultures.

There are many incredibly strong young people surviving similar situations as Frank's. She was very brave. She grew up in such a hurry, had to. There is a similar book by a girl in Kosovo while it was under siege. And I am sure there are people in Iraq who live every day afraid to leave their shelters. I pray that one day children everywhere will be free to be children in safe and healthy setting. We must do whatever we can to help that happen.

I was able to watch the movie but haven't read the book. I agree with you pal. Being in her shoes is such a hard thing to do. You always hope a day to last longer. I cannot bear in mind to be hiding for the rest of my life. Though in the end she never get the chance to write on her diary anymore and it makes me sad to know that there was indeed people who have experienced like that. It's good to know that there was once an Anne Frank that exist in this world who was brave enough to write the things that she had experienced in life.!

I heard that movie and everyone's telling me that it's really a good movie.Honestly, I wasn't able to view that movie yet.Hope to have a copy next time.
