The diary Anne Frank received for her thirteenth birthday was the first of many books she wrote in. From December 1942 onwards, she wrote in notebooks brought b...y the helpers. Did you know that when Anne heard on the radio that diaries would be collected after the war, she decided to rewrite her diary with an eye to publication? It was her dream to become a famous writer or journalist. She already had a title in mind: ‘Het Achterhuis’ (The Secret Annex). Visit Anne Frank A History for Today to find out what happened to the notebooks after the family was arrested.
