Review by: Allen Klingelhoets

This series inspired the PBS Kids program "Xavier Riddle and the Secret Museum".

The inside cover asks: "What Makes a Hero"

Anne Frank's diary, documenting her life while hiding from the Nazis in WWII, continues to bring hope to readers today. Anne was a young Jewish girl who found things many kids love: being with her family, going to the movies, and writing stories. When her family was forced into hiding, writing in her diary was a great sort of comfort to Anne and a way to find meaning during a terrifying time. Little did she know that her words would eventually become meaningful to the whole world.

This lively, New York Times bestselling biography series inspires kids to dream big, one great role model at a time. You'll want to collect each book.

We can all be heroes!
