Che a graphic biography anne frank

In an ide­al set­ting, this unique graph­ic biog­ra­phy would be read along­side Anne Frank’s Diary of a Young Girl. Lack­ing the emo­tion of a first-per­son account, the infor­ma­tion is pre­sent­ed in a dry, jour­nal­is­tic style.

Par­tic­u­lar­ly use­ful are maps of Europe dur­ing the war and detailed dia­grams and images of the Annex where Anne, her fam­i­ly, and the oth­er ​“hiders” spent a tense two years. Through­out the book are ​“snap­shots,” which pro­vide back­ground infor­ma­tion on Ger­many in World War I, the Ger­man eco­nom­ic cri­sis, the rise of the Nazi par­ty, the Wannsee Con­fer­ence, and the con­cen­tra­tion camps.
