Anne Frank Diary of a Young Girl


"No matter what I'm doing, I can't help thinking about those who are gone. I catch myself laughing and remember that it's a disgrace to be so cheerful. But am I supposed to spend the whole day crying? No, I can't do that. This gloom will pass. (p. 70)
Although I read this book in middle school, I really didn't have much of a recollection of it. As it turns out, I also don't think that I had the ability to appreciate it as much as I did this time. I don't think I can truly grasp the reality that was Anne's reality but am grateful that she left this legacy for the world to better understand. (5.0/5.0)
