Many people kept diaries during the last century, but the most famous diary writer of them all is young Jewish girl named Anna Prank. Anna began writing in her diary at the age of thirteen, and she wrote in it almost every day for the next two years. At first, she told Kitty – the name she gave the diary – about her friends, school, and boys, but very soon she could no longer write about these things. It was 1942, and the middle of the Second World War, a time of fear and uncertainty, especially for Jewish families in Europe. Anna and her parents and sister were forced to go into hiding to escape being sent away from Amsterdam, the city in which they had lived for almost ten years.
