Some are stories like Anne Frank’s. Some tell of survivors and refugees, some are about the brave people who tried to help. Most are based on true stories. The Nazis persecuted the Jews and they also persecuted others: black people, homosexuals, Roma and people with disabilities. Writers, journalists, socialists, trade unionists and political opponents to the Nazi regime were also targeted. There are several listings of books about the Holocaust suitable for children. The following are useful points of contact for lists and guides: • Public libraries www.askaboutireland.ie/libraries • Children’s books Ireland www.childrensbooksireland.com • International Board on Books for Young People www.ibbyireland.ie Every country participating in The Crocus Project will have its own recommended reading list. The books on this reading list refer specifically to the Holocaust. Teachers are strongly advised to read all books before reading them in the classroom and to add their own selections to the list. 31116c_Crocus_IRE_ENG_Booklist_1 30/08/2018 17:08 Page 4 2 The Crocus Project – Booklist Anne Frank’s Diary In 1944, Gerrit Bolkestein, a member of the Dutch government in exile, announced in a radio broadcast from London that after the war he hoped to collect eyewitness accounts of the suffering of the Dutch people under the German occupation, which could be made available to the public. As an example, he specifically mentioned letters and diaries. The broadcast was heard by a young Jewish girl called Anne Frank, who was hiding with her family and friends in a secret annexe in Amsterdam. She had been keeping a diary of her experiences since they first went into hiding in 1942. Anne thinks this is a brilliant idea and writes “Just imagine how interesting it would be if I were to publish a novel about the Secret Annexe!” In May 1944, the idea of this novel takes on serious form: “At long last after a great deal of reflection I have started my Achterhuis (Secret Annexe), in my head it is as good as finished, although it won’t go as quickly as that, if it ever comes off at all”. The diary of Anne Frank was found in the Secret Annexe after the family was arrested and was kept carefully by Miep Gies, one of the people who helped the family. Miep handed the diary back to Otto Frank, together with Anne’s notebooks and loose sheets of paper, when he returned to Amsterdam. The diary continues to be read by millions of people all over the world.

  • The Sapling Project
    The Sapling Project http://annefranktreeusa.com/ From her only window to the outside world, Anne Frank could see the sky, birds and a majestic chestnut tree. “As long as this exists”, Anne wrote in her diary, “how can I be sad?” During the two years she spent in the Secret Annex, the solace Anne found in her chestnut tree provided a powerful contrast to the Holocaust unfolding beyond her attic window. And as war narrowed in on Anne and her family, her tree became a vivid reminder that a better world was possible. Anne’s tree would outlive its namesake by more than 50 years, before being weakened by disease and succumbing to a windstorm in 2010. But today, thanks to dozens of saplings propagated in the months before its death, Anne’s tree lives on in cities and towns around the world. Here in the United States, the Sapling Project is bringing eleven of these precious trees to specially selected locations across the country. As the saplings take root, they will emerge as living monuments to Anne’s pursuit of peace and tolerance. In the process, they will serve as powerful reminders of the horrors borne by hate and bigotry and the need for collective action in the face of injustice. The Tree in Anne’s Diary During a speech delivered in 1968, Anne’s father, Otto Frank, reflected on just how important Anne’s tree was to his youngest daughter. “How could I have known”, he asked “how much it meant to Anne to see a patch of blue sky, to observe the seagulls as they flew, and how important the chestnut tree was for her, when I think that she never showed any interest in nature”.

  • Anne Frank - Easy to Read Life Story
    ANNE FRANK - EASY TO READ LIFE STORY Key words Jews: People who follow the religion of Judaism. The Nazi party: The group who were in power in Germany from 1933 – 1945, led by Adolf Hitler. Concentration camp: Places where the Nazis kept many people as prisoners. They were put there because the Nazis did not like them. In the camps people were forced to work as slaves or they were killed. There were many camps like this in Europe in the 1930s and 1940s. The Holocaust: The attempt by the Nazis to kill all the Jews in Europe. Anne Frank was born in Germany in 1929. She lived with her mother Edith, her father Otto and her older sister Margot. Anne and her family were Jews. In 1933, the Nazi Party, led by a man called Adolf Hitler, took charge of Germany. The Nazis thought that German people were better than Jewish people. Edith and Otto were worried about their safety with the Nazis in charge, so the family moved out of Germany to Holland. In 1939, World War Two started. The Nazi’s treatment of Jewish people got worse and worse. They were forced to leave their homes and go and live in concentration camps. Conditions in these camps were dreadful. The Frank family knew that they were in danger and they decided to go into hiding. Their hiding place was a secret room in Otto’s office building. The door was hidden behind a bookcase. For her 13th birthday, Anne’s parents had given her a diary. She was so excited because she wanted to be a famous writer when she grew up.
