Summary:
"In 1933, Hannah Pick-Goslar and her family fled Nazi Germany to live in Amsterdam, where she struck up a friendship with a young girl named Anne Frank. But in 1942, as the Nazi occupation of Amsterdam progressed, Anne and the Frank family seemingly vanished. Hannah was tormented over Anne's fate, wondering if she had managed to escape danger. Culminating in an astonishing fateful reunion, My Friend Anne Frank is the profoundly moving story of childhood and friendship during one of the darkest periods in the world's history"-- Back cover.
