Winner - Best of 2019 Kids Books - Most Inspiring CategoryThe story of Anne Frank and her diary is one of the world's most important and well-known, but less is known about the woman who sheltered Anne and her family for years and, ultimately, rescued Anne's diary from Nazi clutches. Miep Gies was a woman who rose to bravery when humanity needed it and risked everything for her neighbors. It is because of Miep we know Anne Frank--and now, this is Miep's story.
Ages 6-10.
When the Frank family and others are found and arrested during World War II, Miep Gies hides young Anne's papers from the Nazis and later is instrumental in having her beloved friend's diary published.
