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 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”.

  • 5 Plan Resource 21
    5 PLAN RESOURCE 21 Project summary Project :‘The story of the city’ Country: The Netherlands AFY members: Dzifa Kusenuh and Mimi Oldenhave “We all live with the objective of being happy; our lives are all different and yet the same.” Anne Frank A lot of the problems between people come from the fact that they don’t know each other. If you don’t know the other person, it’s much easier to be prejudiced about them, which makes it easier to insult the other. For this project, a ‘living room’ setting was created on the Leidseplein , in the city center of Amsterdam. People who passed by were asked if they were willing to have a three-minute conversation with a complete stranger. The reactions varied greatly. Some people ignored the question, others were interested and listened, but had no time to stay. The ones who wanted to join the experiment asked each other questions such as: “If you would have to choose between 6, 16, and 36, which age would you choose and why?’’ or “What is your biggest fear?’’ 1 5 PLAN Project: The conscience tree workshop Country: Belgium AFY member: Yaël Bergman Yael Bergman did a workshop with a group of thirty teenagers of 14 and 15 years old from a Jewish Belgian youth movement (JJL). The workshop took place during a seminar, just before their autumn camp. The workshop was a “discussion-reflection” on the different problems the Belgian society is facing today (discrimination, racism, anti-semitism, inequalities). To discuss these topics, they used the tool of the conscience tree.

  • 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.
