Books with author Sue Davidson

At the age of thirteen, Anne Frank went into hiding with her family to escape from the Nazis. For two years, she couldn't go outside or run or shout or laugh too loudly. Instead, she poured her thoughts and feelings into her diary, which is now famous all over the world. This story of her life begins when she was still a carefree girl like any other. This book has been written with the expert advice of Eva Schloss, a concentration camp survivor and stepsister of Anne Frank. Eva is a founder member of the Anne Frank Trust and author of Eva's Story: A Survivor's Tale by the Stepsister of Anne Frank.
