One of the most famous and memorable accounts of [[World War II]] and the Holocaust, ''the Diary of a Young Girl'' or ''Het Achterhuis'' in the original Dutch, was the title given to the edited version of the Diaries of Anne Frank (1929 - 1945), a Dutch Jewish school girl living in Amsterdam. In 1942, Anne was given a diary notebook for her 13th birthday which is when the diary starts, by that point, [[Nazi Germany|Germany has already invaded]] and occupied the Netherlands for 2 years. At first, the Franks tried to live out the occupation, but as [[Adolf Hitler]]'s genocidal intentions began to show, Anne's father Otto built a secret shelter in the business building where he worked (by that point, the borders are closed and travel for Jews is so tightly regulated that leaving Amsterdam would have been impossible). On 6 July 1942, Anne's sister Margot received relocations orders to enter a "[[Blatant Lies|work]]" camp, and the Franks, along with van Pels family and another Jewish friend immediately moved into the Secret Annex (as it was called). |
