The Diary of a Young Girl

The Diary of a Young Girl has vary versions. One of them is this one.

Alright, fellas! Today's topic is : THE DIARY OF A YOUNG GIRL (ANNE FRANK).

Have you guys read this book or seen this book somewhere? This book is a 5 rating book and has been translated into 67 languages. This book contains Anne Frank's diary. She was just a 13 year-old-girl who loves writing. Her family and her were Jews and they had some pressure which forced them to hide in Otto Frank's (Anne Frank's father) workshop in Amsterdam. 
This story isn't very historical or really showing off Anne's saddest feeling about the life under Nazi's pressure. This book actually tells you about a normal life but the difference with our life is the events and of course, the time. I think what I found interesting in this book is the way Anne Frank expressed herself and her life. She could open people's eyes, especially teenagers', to be somehow curious and interested in her stories.
For me, this book also has a connection with teenagers' daily life, even though there is a matter of time and event, just like what I said before. For example, Anne told about her friends, on how she felt of not having a 'real' friend, confusion, complaint, gratitude, and many more just like how teenagers see life. It is just amazing on how she delivered everything she was thinking of and translating what she had in mind into such a piece of handwriting. What an amazing and inspiring work!

There are parts of this book which I love so much. I love how Anne describes her social and daily life. There is this part where Anne spent some time with Helmut Silberberg (Hello) and of course, I won't also forget Anne's one and only crush in this book, Peter Van Daan! Peter Van Daan's name is actually Peter Van Pells. I don't know why Anne likes changing people's name.
I think you should try reading this book! This book gives a very good entertainment, especially when you're bored and you don't know what to do.
