In this kids' biography, discover the incredible story of Anne Frank, the courageous young writer who hid from the Nazis during World War II.

Anne Frank's diary is read by children and adults worldwide. It tells two stories: one of an extraordinary young girl living in hiding during one of the most fearsome times in history, and one of a relatable young girl facing the same questions and troubles that kids come up against today. Learn how both sides of this puzzle made up the person who is Anne Frank.

In this biography for kids ages 8-12, meet Anne's family and friends, explore The Annex where they hid, and see her story put in historical context alongside information about World War II and the Holocaust, and Hitler and Nazi Germany.

DK Life Stories go beyond the basic facts to tell the true life stories of history's most interesting people.
