One dusty afternoon in the summer of 2006, I spent the lunch hour in my high school library reading a book called The Last Seven Months of Anne Frank , written by Willy Lindwer. Last month I pulled out a copy of the same book from my own bookshelf on the International Holocaust Remembrance Day, which falls on 27th of January.
Most childrenâs introduction to Anne Frankâarguably one of the most well-known victims of the Holocaustâis through her diary, an account of her life while in hiding. That book is considered essential reading for middle school students across the world.
