Title: ANNE FRANK: Life in Hiding
Author: JOHANNA HURWITZ Overall





Recommend it to people who are interested in Anne Frank, World War II and a different side of World War II.
Summary
This story takes place in world war II and is about a Jewish girl that lives in Holland and is named Anne.
It all starts on Anne’s 13th birthday June 12 1942  when she’s opening her presents also in chapter 1 it talks about Anne’s life. In chapter 2 it says a bit about what's going on in the rest of the world and what countries germany has taken over and the allied forces. One night Anne’s family decides to go into hiding so they put on layers and layers of clothes because if they brought a suitcase it would be too obvious that they were going into hiding. They don’t go out of town to hide instead they hid in 263 Prinsengracht in a secret annex they could not flush the toilet in the day time or run water to wash their hands or to cook. They were in a very risky and dangerous situation because if they got found than they would probably all die. WILL THEY GET CAUGHT BY THE GESTAPO (GERMAN POLICE)? Read the Book to find out.

Reviews
I think this book is OK because JOHANNA HURWITZ could maybe do a bit better describing what things look like, like when she saids barracks she could describe what barracks are but so you know what they are here is a picture of one. But I think overall this book is good and I would recommend it to people who are interested in Anne Frank, World War II and a different side of World War II.

Title: Anne Frank Life in Hiding
A Biography by Johanna Hurwitz

If you are interested in hiding and what it feels like to be in the brain of someone in World War II, this is a book for you. In this book, you will feel how Annelies {Anne} Frank felt like during World War II,  The biography captures her entire story - from when she was migrating to when she was hiding to being caught and till her death. You will feel what Frank felt like in this book. Frank was born on June 12, 1929. After some time Adolf Hitler got elected and seized total power, and formed the Nazis and the anti-semitism laws…
In my opinion, Johanna Hurwitz, did a good job in explaining what was happening, and staying in Frank’s perspective and explaining Frank’s views. Overall, I think she published a pretty great biography about Annelies Frank.
