What didn t work was the cloying sentimentality in the writing style.
Anne frank in my attic book fiction.
Thanks to her best selling diary most people know anne frank as the young jewish girl who lived in an attic during the holocaust.
2 the franks and four dutch jews who were hiding with them were discovered by authorities on august 4 1944.
I go up to the loft almost every morning to let the stuffy indoor air blow out of my lungs anne wrote on 23 february 1944.
Made it sound like the book was written for hallmark or lifetime.
Moving from a happy childhood to the fearful escape in an attic where her father used to work because hitler used to send the jews to concentration camps to die.
Other than that the people in hiding used the room mainly for storage purposes.
The diary of anne frank is a real diary written by a little jewish girl who lived in hiding for two years with her family during world war 2.
Letters frank penned before she and her family went into hiding.
And totally unnecessary since the quoted letters have enough everyday drama.
Anne frank and her family spent two years hiding in a secret attic apartment behind the office of a family owned business in amsterdam.
That part was quite fascinating.
