5.0 out of 5 stars Most influential book in my life, December 23, 1996

By A Customer

This review is from: The Diary of Anne Frank (Cliffs Notes) (Paperback)

This is the most influential book in my life. I am deeply touched by the talent of Anne. You couldn't guess that this diary was writen by a 13 years old girl. The life in the annex was well illustrated. Anne's mind is opened before us by this great diary. However, you couldn't say that this was not writen by a 13 years old girl. The thoughts are what a teenage girls should have. But, very little teenage or even adult can describ his/her feeling and thoughts in such detail. I feel deeply sorry for Anne's suffering. I felt so frighten when I was reading near the end of the diary. I don't want the diary stop there. Why was the annex was discovered??
