This is not the original story...it’s been revised and cr** has been added. Parents are right. Put the original on the shelf...as it should be.

I have the impression neither of you read what I said.

I’m defending Moms for Liberty

I read Diary of Anne Frank and thought it a very good book.

I do not recommend anyone bring a ‘revised, sexualized edition’ of Anne Frank into the classroom

“NOT Anne Frank’s work product!!!”

Yes, and the MSM uses the confusion to make the parents group look like morons to non-discerning readers.

That’s what I thought too. First, a comic book seems disrespectful of the subject matter, and second, why have it in a high school? They are old enough to read the original. Seems like this was intended for a younger group, and I wouldn’t take their word for it that it was only in the high school library.

Let’s be clear : this version of Anne Frank’s diary is a bastardization of her diary, with all kinds of salacious crap inserted into it. It should never be represented as her work.

Wasn’t it suspected someone put that stuff in there

Maybe her dad

I’m not super familiar with her story

Growing up 15-25 years post war we didn’t dwell on the holocaust or civil rights then
Though we sure knew of it

The series world at war as well as miniseries The Holocaust with Michael moriarty and James woods and Meryl Streep sure brought it out early 70s

One of the reviews on the book in question-—

“I got this for my 9 and 11 year old to teach them about Anne Frank and the Holocaust and instead of learning about that they learned about how Anne Frank had feelings for girls and to touch other girls breasts and her enjoyment in taking baths with adults. Also, they added in a scene where the Dad is naked and leaving the room implying he raped Anne Frank. This is not in the original and simply fits an agenda of exposing and harming children.”

Rule 34
Rule 34 is an Internet meme which claims that Internet pornography exists concerning every possible topic. The concept is commonly depicted as fan art of normally non-erotic subjects engaging in sexual behavior and/or activity.

Anne’s father edited out the sexual content, including her detailed description of her vagina. Perhaps these people put that back in somehow.

Unfortunate and unnecessary, I would say, pretty far from the actual meaning of the book, which is the savagery that supposedly civilized continent is capable of when given permission for it by an authoritarian government.

The parents are correct. That’s not a kid friendly book.

Firstly, this is a diary of a young girl who poured her thoughts and hopes into it. It was quite sexually explicit. However, when the publishers originally sought to publish the diary, it was heavily edited, and her sexual musings and writings were removed as immodest and not germane to the holocaust topic. Much later, maybe the 90s, It was republished with the missing material in the hopes of re-booting interest (and sales).
