Anne Frank - The Diary of a young girl - I borrowed this book from the library.  I have read this book 50 years ago and I am now re-reading it.  The book still moved me - very touching and one could almost see her: she's alive again when you read her anecdotes, her feelings and her observations.
Discovered in the attic in which she spent the last years of her life, Anne Frank's remarkable diary has since become world classic - a powerful reminder of the horrors of war and an eloquent testament to the human spirit.  A truly remarkable book.  Reading it is a rich and rewarding experience.
