Experience Anne Frank’s story as never before—through her own words.

My Name is Anne is the official Anne Frank House authorized edition, offering a powerful and accessible introduction to Anne Frank’s life for today’s young readers. Drawing on carefully selected excerpts from her diary alongside clear historical context, this unique retelling allows readers to encounter Anne not as a distant figure from history, but as a real young girl—thoughtful, creative, and full of hope.

From her early childhood to her time in hiding in the Secret Annex, Anne’s voice guides the reader through her experiences, revealing her humour, fears, dreams, and resilience in the face of unimaginable circumstances. By presenting her story largely in her own words, this edition creates a direct and deeply personal connection to one of the most important voices of the 20th century.

Supported by official Anne Frank House resources, this edition goes beyond traditional storytelling. Integrated multimedia features—including companion videos, audio narration of Anne’s words, and atmospheric soundscapes—bring her world to life and support a richer, more immersive learning experience. QR codes provide access to additional materials, encouraging readers to explore Anne’s story in greater depth.

Thoughtfully designed for modern readers and classrooms, My Name is Anne presents complex history in a clear, age-appropriate way, making it ideal for guided reading, independent study, and curriculum use. This is more than a biography—it is an opportunity to hear Anne’s voice, understand her world, and reflect on the enduring importance of her story.
