  • Release : 2020-09
  • ISBN : 9780228103011
  • Pages : 48 pages

Download or read book The Life of Anne Frank written by Kay Woodward and published by Firefly Books. This book was released on 2020-09 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compelling visual account of how a Jewish family tried to escape Nazism. In August 1944, Anne Frank and her family were arrested. Anne was taken to Bergen-Belsen concentration camp where she died of typhus in early 1945, about six months after her arrest and just weeks before the British liberated the camp in April 1945. Anne's father fulfilled his promise and published 1,500 copies of Achterhuis, or The Secret Annex, in German. Since then the newly named Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl has sold over 30 million copies in 70 languages. The year 2020 marks the 75th anniversary of the young diarist's death. Anne wrote the diary during the 25 months that her family of four and four others were hiding in the top floor of an Amsterdam office building, now the Anne Frank Museum, which welcomes one and a half million visitors each year. The Life of Anne Frank is a compelling factual account and timeline of those two years. Fascinating photographs show the still unchanged Annex, including the hidden entrance, and text takes readers directly inside to reveal the surroundings and Anne's story. The book uses images and text plus a timeline to cover: the lead-up to war and anti-Semitism the building, rented by Frank's father, and the decision to hide how the family escaped without detection a who's who of those hiding where they slept, cooked, bathed and ate how a typical day would pass the necessity to maintain absolute silence the helpers who brought food and news of the war the attic where Anne could catch a glimpse of nature Anne's desk where she put down her secret thoughts, fears and dreams the diary and why Anne wrote a second version Nazism, the concentration camps and the aftermath how other Jews hid during the war the discovery of the hideaway what happened to the residents when peace came. Anne Frank's book is on school reading lists across the country. For many it is a reader's first if not only exposure to anti-Semitism and the Holocaust. The Life of Anne Frank makes this seminal time in history come alive. Young readers can grasp the context and place themselves in Anne's story. The vivid visual presentation throughout brings her ordeal to life in a way that words alone cannot, perhaps not even Anne's.

Book The Betrayal of Anne Frank

Download or read book The Betrayal of Anne Frank written by Rosemary Sullivan and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2023-01-17 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times Bestseller Less a mystery unsolved than a secret well kept... Using new technology, recently discovered documents and sophisticated investigative techniques, an international team—led by an obsessed retired FBI agent—has finally solved the mystery that has haunted generations since World War II: Who betrayed Anne Frank and her family? And why? Over thirty million people have read The Diary of a Young Girl, the journal teen-aged Anne Frank kept while living in an attic with her family and four other people in Amsterdam during World War II, until the Nazis arrested them and sent them to a concentration camp. But despite the many works—journalism, books, plays and novels—devoted to Anne’s story, none has ever conclusively explained how these eight people managed to live in hiding undetected for over two years—and who or what finally brought the Nazis to their door. With painstaking care, retired FBI agent Vincent Pankoke and a team of indefatigable investigators pored over tens of thousands of pages of documents—some never before seen—and interviewed scores of descendants of people familiar with the Franks. Utilizing methods developed by the FBI, the Cold Case Team painstakingly pieced together the months leading to the infamous arrest—and came to a shocking conclusion. The Betrayal of Anne Frank: A Cold Case Investigation is the riveting story of their mission. Rosemary Sullivan introduces us to the investigators, explains the behavior of both the captives and their captors and profiles a group of suspects. All the while, she vividly brings to life wartime Amsterdam: a place where no matter how wealthy, educated, or careful you were, you never knew whom you could trust.
