Have you read Anne Frank's diary?  It is a very moving account of Anne's life in hiding during the Holocaust.  But there is more to Anne and her family than what you learn about in her diary.  This book tells you of the family's life in Germany before Hitler came to power.  You follow the family as they move to Amsterdam and their nine years there before they were forced into hiding.  And you will learn what happened to the family members after they were discovered.  If you long for more information about the Franks, you will not be disappointed in this book.
