This is the third time I'm reading this book and I have loved it every time I read it. This book had so much detail that it was like you were in her shoes.

Anne Frank and the Children of the Holocaust is about how the Frank Family encountered many struggles because of their religion. The Franks had to move from house to house because of various discriminations happening to the Jews because of the Germans.

The book talks about how not only did the Frank Family suffer but also did all the Jews who had to be put in concentration camps. The theme of this book is that when there is something bad happening, in the end there is always something good that comes out from it. What I didn't like about this book is how the Germans made the Jews suffer a lot that it came to the point that Jews couldn't get any freedom and how many families died just because they had a different belief.

I can't stop crying. This book broke my heart. This well written piece contained such an insightful account of what went on before, during and after the war; it was hell. Although Anne Frank's diary was beautifully written, it was somewhat detached to the horrors of the Holocaust due to their hiding in the Annex.
