I haven’t read the book to compare it to, but this graphic adaptation was great for me to read. Anne had such expansive and mature thoughts and ideas for such a young girl. I’m so glad I read this. The graphic art was fantastic too. I would definitely recommend.

What an amazing book/comic it was... illustrations were funny and mind blowing, they were so accurate that i suspected that Anne had drawn some sketches in her diary too.
About Anne, i can relate to her in so many levels. It was astonishing reading what a 13 years old girl could write. Her funny/emotional and logical way of thinking ah... i wish her story ended differently though... such a shame...
i feel gloomy recently and reading how she and other 7 people and the kitten were living in Annex was on point for my mood.
She may be long gone but will always stay in my heart ❤️

Solo puedo decir que es una muy buena adaptación gráfica del Diario de Anna Frank. Cada escena está muy bien plasmada teniendo en cuenta que son textos seleccionados. Las viñetas excelentes tanto comoas ilustraciones y los colores.
Bastante recomendable para todos aquellos que hayan leído a Anne Frank antes o que todavía no lo hayan hecho.

Gigantic thanks to Goodreads First Reads for me winning this book. What a great new way of viewing this classic!

I'll admit I was skeptical at first, especially when I kept seeing things that I did not recall from even my most recent reading of The Diary of a Young Girl. Turns out that I was completely unaware that there was a Definitive version of the diary that had been released in more recent years. I was finally clued in when I looked up a date in my own copy and it wasn't there. Lo and behold, research told me that I'd been out of the literary loop.

Anyway, I really like the style used here: the real passages from the diary plus the illustrated imaginings, the passages consolidated to a page of illustrations.... It's impressive to take any work and cut it down yet still keep the feelings involved. When you read this, you must read the Adapter's Note at the end.

I think they also handled the Afterword the best way they could. It definitely had to be included. Depressing as it is, I can't handle the Diary without the conclusion, especially as Anne gives such a nice introduction to their situation. I kind of wanted to see how they might illustrate Anne's end, but I'm, ultimately, very glad they didn't.

Excellently executed (poor choice of words, sorry), you must read this version if you appreciate Anne's diary in any way, shape, or form.

3.5⭐

Absolut lesenswert und toll umgesetzt.
