Description

This fascinating history of Anne Frank and the family that shaped her is based on thousands of letters, poems, drawings, postcards, and photos recently discovered by her relative Buddy Elias and his wife, Gerti. As children, Anne and her cousin Buddy were close; he affectionately dubbed her "the Rascal," and they corresponded frequently. Years later, Buddy inherited their grandmother's papers stored unseen in an attic for decades. These materials bring a lost world to life and tell a moving saga of a close-knit family divided by unimaginable tragedy. We see Anne's father surviving the Holocaust and searching for his daughters, finally receiving a wrenching account of their last months. We also see the relatives in Switzerland waiting for news during the war and share their experiences of reunion and grief afterwards—and their astonishment as Anne's diary becomes a worldwide phenomenon. Anne Frank's Family is the story of a remarkable Jewish family that will move readers everywhere.
