All About Anne

Anne Frank’s life story is told by answering the most frequently asked questions posed by children and young people visiting the Anne Frank House museum in Amsterdam. Text, detailed photographs and beautiful illustrations combine to give the fullest picture of Anne’s life, her diary, and the Secret Annex. Full of information about Anne’s life, World War II, and the Holocaust, the book provides both an overview of the history as well as intimate insights into the life of the young Anne Frank.

Anne Frank Stichting organisation was founded in 1957 in collaboration with Otto Frank, Anne’s father, and is dedicated to the preservation of the building at Prinsengracht 263 in Amsterdam, where the Frank family and others were in hiding during WWII. Since 1960 the building, known as the Anne Frank House, is open to the public as a museum, bringing Anne’s words, as made famous by her diary, to the attention of people worldwide.

Huck Scarry is the son of children's authors Patricia Scarry and Richard Scarry. He worked on the spot in the Anne Frank House during several visits there, to get the illustrations as historically correct as possible, yet also engaging for young readers.
