Find Anne Frank And Me Narrated By Cherie Bennett Shown In Document
of an 'updated' Devil's Arithmetic, but still really great, The final scene in the gas chamber really stuck with me even years later, Definitely recommended for teens learning about the Holocaust, I thought this might be a nice companion for The Diary of Anne Frank, Nicole is a tenth grader, but I felt that she and her friends acted and spoke more like middle school students.
Way too much sexual references etc, for MS. This book followed the plot of "The Devil's Arithmetic" with the main character suffering a concussion and going back in time.
It took a long time to get to that point and by then, I was mostly skimming and skipping large sections.
Unsatisfied with the ending. Doom scenario much too shallow and what happens to him in the end Most books with content and perspective such as this one don't usually interest me.
But the connection the sisters shared at the end the emotions nearly broke my heart at the end.
A rare story and a mustread, whether the holocaust has importance or not to you, i love this book because it teaches yew not to be so selfish about life because yew never know what your grandparents or even your parents haddoget yew where yew are now.
that is what this book taught meeh and if i had a chance i would read this book again and again, and i recommend other ppl to read this book.
i love this book. i love this book. i love this book. this book is the best book i have ever read and i had to read this book for my book club at skool for a grade and at first i thought it was going to be boring because ms.
troyer picked it out for us and wen i opened the book it took meeh right wit the charter nicole because i felt wat she was feeling and at sometimes in my room wen she cryed i cryed.
lol. sounds cheesy huh but any way for theth time though this whole thang, i love this book! I thought it was wonderful and Im an adult who was given this book by another adult, a friend who loves history as much as I do.
Even though Im old enough to be Nicoles mother, I found her character easy to relate to and her journey is something that will stay with me for a long time.
This book was an incredible exercise in empathy, . . how much do we know about what we would really do if in anothers shoes Anne Frank and Me answers this question with a lot of heart.
The grass sin't always greener on the other side, This book is an absolutely amazing book, And for those of you, who believe Anne Frank and other Holocaust victims are a Hoax, you're wrong! She was a real person! Others were too.
Others died. Murdered. Some survived. Listen to the survivors. Learn something. If you read this book, it can truly take you back in time, I love this book, and I wish for many of you to read it, I am considering starting my own Notes From Girl X site, This book is
indescribable,
READ IT, stars!!! If you are looking to read this book dont waist your time! There are so many great books on theworld war read those! Please save your time
We where forced to read this book in school and even the teacher who taught it hated it!
The book was filled with snotty rich people who think learning about the holocaust is a wast of time.
The love story was so one noted and terrible you hate the carecters,
One ene page she was close to rped then the next page she wants to be in a sexual relationship with her boyfriend.
In reality she would be petrified,
This book tries to relate to youth but then she magically travels back in time as you do every day it also makes all teenage girls seem like boy obsessed fools.
So in conclusion dont wast your time read a better book! I remember reading this book when I was a teenager and loving it.
I decided to reread it now as an adult and was not disappointed, The book is compelling, entertaining, gutwrenching and heartbreaking all in one, I can see why I liked it so much when I was younger, I think would rate it,if Goodreads allowed half ratings but I'm rounding it todue to nostalgia but also due to how important the topic is.
This is a great way to present the horrors of the Holocaust and World War II to young people.
Loved this story
I loved this book that's why I am rating it high.
It was hard to put it down, I liked it's edge sitting moments throughout the story, I felt it had a good line of events that really happened, Whether or not the characters were real, I would recommend this book to any one what is into historical events, I know I would probably read it again someday, Mass shooter, Anne Frank,
you would not think these things go together, but Cherie Bennett weaves these storylines, putting a girl from the modern world back in the time of Anne Frank.
She learns the hard way what it is to be Jewish during WWII in Paris, and comes close enough to death to be forever affected by it.
Powerful, gripping story, but the Anne Frank parts felt forced, Hardly there. I think this story would have been better if she'd just gone to Paris and left Anne out of the story entirely.
It took too much away from what was there, This book challenged my inner child to be a bit more grown up and understand why everything doesn't always end happily ever after.

I had to read this for my English class, so that was sort of what kept me reading this novel.
In the beginning, I didnt see the appeal whatsoever, The main character, Nicole, seemed like every other spoiled kid that thinks theyre the most unlucky and unpopular person on the planet when in reality theyre not.
She just seemed selfish to me, and from the very beginning I didnt want to continue,
Since it was for school, I forced myself to continue, The first few chapters were painful to read, literally, You could tell that the dialogue was written by an adult, and thats coming from a teenager, I still wasnt seeing the appeal,
When the incident happened and Nicole was injured, it brought her to some dream/flashback/vision I still dont know how to describe it in thes as herself, except she was a Jewish girl.
I found this to be pretty interesting, it spiked my interest, which the previous chapters of Nicole complaining all the time did not.
I was a fan of the plot in the middle of the book, when it took place in thes.
I liked how her personality changed for the better, how she often prioritized other things and people rather than herself.
When she returned to her regular life, I was bored again, I can barely remember what happened after she returned,
Long story short the beginning was meh, the middle was good, and the ending was meh.
Was the book enjoyable I guess so, Would I read it again in my own time Probably not, Nicole is Girl X, an anonymous teenage blogger who is madly in love with J, a boy who barely know she exists.
While on a school field trip to an Anne Frank exhibit, Nicole and her best friend Mimi are injured in an apparent shootout and Nicole faints.
When she wakes up, she's a Jewish girl in France in, her teacher and principal are her parents, and J is her boyfriend! Living under Nazi administration is definitely no walk in the park, but Nicole isn't completely miserable at first.
Soon, she starts to believe that her American life in the future is all a dream, But then the antiJewish laws get stricter and her life is put in danger,
What I like about Anne Frank and Me is that Nicole learns more than she knew she didn't know about the Holocaust.
She discovers her inner strength as she struggles to stay happy in a society that wants her dead.
She realizes that her little sister and her annoying teacher aren't all that bad, and that it's better to die standing up than laying down.
While there's romance, it's actually not the main plot, One thing readers know for sure: her life will never be the same,
amnesia, memory loss
death
executions
genocide
hallucinations possible
refugee crisis
starvation
terrorism
trauma
violence
war.
