Anne Frank: The Anne Frank House Authorized Graphic Biography by Sidney Jacobson

4.0

This is a very dense graphic novel. At times it felt like an informative essay with pictures in the background. But as you continue to read, it gets easier to follow. I grew to appreciate the details not usually included in the Anne Frank story and I LOVED the text features (maps, timelines, family trees, etc) used throughout the story.
Our school has a class set now and I intend to use it during our Holocaust unit. If you're thinking of using it, be warned it is not a light read and will take many days to get through. I originally wanted it as a companion to the Anne Frank play, but will have to start the graphic novel first and continue after we finish the play I believe.
