Personal Response: This is a powerful firsthand account of Jewish struggles to survive during World War II and the persecution of people of Jewish backgrounds. Anne Frank’s diary is a look into individual’s lives and their struggle to survive while being hunted down by the Nazi party. One of the thing that makes this diary so unique is not only the accounts of hiding from the Nazi party, but it also shows the emotions and changes that a young girl goes through as she reaches womanhood. These changes themselves can be quite difficult, but when you add in the fact that they are confide to one living area, it is a truly unique look into what Anne actually went through and experienced. It can be a very emotionally and at times very heavy and difficult read that allows you to vicariously feel her fears. It is a great source to use in a history or English class.
