Anne Frank's Tales from the Secret Annex: A Collection of Her Short Stories, Fables, and Lesser-Known Writings Audiobook

" The book was heartbreakingly and beautifully written, it shows how much talent Anne had and what a promising future she would have had if she'd survived. The book was lively with details and it was a shame that she never finished Cady's life even though I didn't understand what the plot was. The flaws to this book was that it was much too long for a person in this century to enjoy.And yes, it can get boring in some parts but Anne is and was a promising writer,some chapters capture your attention again after being distracted. I'll even admit, as a fan of Anne Frank, I skipped a few pages to get to the good parts of it. But then I re-read the book, including the dull parts, and mostly enjoyed it. "

" A good addition to the original diaries, which I enjoyed many years ago now. This is a collection of extra writings done my Anne whilst in hiding, both about what was going on around her and from her own imagination and includes various stories and moral tales. Worth a read. "

" Who knew other writings of Anne Frank existed? Her insight & understanding at only 15 years old is phenomenal. Likely could be the most talented young author ever! Delighted I happened upon this! "

" What a wonderful book. I recomend everyone read it. The fables and short stories are brilliant. It also shows her character as a person. I loved it. "

" I don't know where to start. this book was so beautiful and sad written. i just adore how anne frank went all through all of those moments at a very young age but still she was so happy and positive. All i have to say is that she was an inspirational person and very brave just like her family. "

" Anne Frank was obviously a very special girl with a life meant for great purpose. Her writing could be deeply sympathetic, and is full of simple wisdom. She was profound without trying to be impressive. I adored this book and loved the story of the flower girl best. It sticks with me. "

" Its so sad all that she had to go through at such a young age, even her family and friends. but she is such an inspiration even in the midst of fear she still kept faith, love and dreams alive in her heart. "

" This rating acknowledges her age, and her talent, had she been able to more fully develop it. "

" Also moving and beautiful. Anne has a special place in my heart. "

" A touching story. I read this twice once on my own and the second for school. "

" it was kind of boring because it only had, like, short stories "

" Not a bad read. Interesting to see the day to day happenings while being in the annexe. "

" Good read for more insight into the annex. This is writngs and stories from Anne herself. Have to admit I didn't finish. I got a little tired of it. I'll pick it up again, I just got bored. It's not as great as her diary. "

" I read this YEARS ago. "

" I remember I had gotten into an Anne Frank kick, but I don't have a review written for this one. I didn't like the books that went too much into detail about the sufferings of the victims in WW2. "

" She was truly wise beyond her years. "

" The Diary of Anne Frank is one of those books that somehow passed me by. After reading this extract it is a fault that I fully intend to rectify immediately. "

" How could you rate it any less than five? I don't know what the difference between that and the main diary is... But anyway. She was incredibly gifted at writing. What more can I say? It's tragic. "

" Anne's stories showed a lot of promise. "

" If Anne Frank had lived, she may have matured into a very good fiction writer as well. Wish all my students had written as well. "

" This book is VERY weird specially the AUTHOR! "

" It is interesting to read if you think about where and who wrote the book but that feeling is soon lost as the short stories turn into a boring read. "

" It had been a long time since I read this so I thought I'd give it another go around. It makes me think about all the little things we all take for granted! I felt so sad for Anne when she says that they no longer even hear birds singing outside the windows. "

" I started reading this book while back. good while back. decided to finish it, and get it off my currently reading shelf. :) her stories were good in the first part. liked some of the diary entries that were not originally published with her diary. worthy read if you liked her diary. "

" If Anne Frank had lived, she may have matured into a very good fiction writer as well. Wish all my students had written as well. "

" Little short stories that Anne Frank wrote about. "

" Didn’t like this at all. She is always doing something behind her parent’s back. There is also some cursing and other inappropriate comments. I wouldn’t recommend it to others, and especially not to children! "

" Honestly this book, was REALLY boring, It sorta repeats over and over and over and over. Blah, Blah , Blah. But the information was good I guess. I learned some Dutch from this book which was pretty cool. Well I guess this book was overall ok. "
