Description
“[A] stunning, haunting work of art. . . . The comedy of the Diary—one of the bookâ€s most
charming and often overlooked aspects—shines in this form. . . . There are so many wonderful
juxtapositions of text and imagery that it feels cruel to focus on only a few, but another consistent standout is
the way the graphic novel conveys Anneâ€s fantasies and emotions—so crucial to the Diary. . . .Â
This graphic adaptation is so engaging and effective that itâ€s easy to imagine it replacing the Diary in
classrooms and among younger readers.― —The New York Times Book Review“Mr. Folmanâ€s
has succeeded in capturing the humor and vitality of the diaries—the hilarious sarcasm, the passionate
declarations, the contemplative self-reproach—without a trace of retrofitted sentimentality. He owes
much to David Polonskyâ€s sublime illustrations. Every one of Anneâ€s flights of fancy finds a
thrilling and ingenious visual representation. . . . A wonderful, full-page composite image of Anne in her
many moods—dreamy, snarky, silly, pensive, outraged or lovesick—is a reminder that the diaries are less
about a lifeâ€s senseless destruction than about a brilliant young woman eternally coming into being.―
—The Wall Street Journal“Anne Frankâ€s Diary: The Graphic Adaptation is a masterpiece.
Writer Ari Folman and illustrator David Polonsky have produced a vibrant, sensitive portrait of the icon who
hid with her parents, sister and four others for two years in the annex of the building in Amsterdam that
housed her fatherâ€s business. Through text and images of seamless intelligence, Anne emerges as a
wryly sophisticated, maturing young lady. . . . Folman expertly balances Anneâ€s exterior and interior
observations. While not minimizing her terrifying circumstances, he focuses more on her wisecracks than on
her fears. . . . Polonskyâ€s extraordinary imagination and draftsmanship propel Anneâ€s revered
diary. . . . This graphic novel is a valuable extension to all the literature that has emanated from Anne
Frankâ€s diary.― —Hadassah Magazine“In the handling that Folman and Polonsky give it, what
happens is nothing short of a revelation . . . nothing has ever quite captured the strange, stubborn delicacy,
the forlorn wistfulness, of the diary like this before . . . a genuine work of art.― —Christian Science
Monitor“Anne Frank's immortal journal gets a new visual energy from David Polonsky's breathtaking
artwork. The story is devastating as ever, with Anne's romantic yearnings, adolescent rebellion and razorsharp
wit still shining through.― —Family Circle“How does one breathe new life into a tale that is
now so familiar that it risks losing its power to shock and instruct? Folman and Polonsky, the duo behind the
film Waltz with Bashir, use the right tools to show us how it's done. Some may ask why Anne Frank's story
needs a graphic adaptation, but the beauty of these pages provides the answer. It gives readers a strong visual
idea of what Anne's secret annex behind a bookcase was like, where she struggled to make sense of her short
and tragic life. Another panel shows a hypothetical wedding day that will break your heart all over
again.―  —Lindsay Pereira, HuffPost“Ari Folman, the Israeli director of Waltz with Bashir, takes
the moving words of Anne Frankâ€s The Diary of a Young Girl and, with his Bashir art director David

Polonsky, creates an engaging, poignant coming-of-age journey. With its cartoon style, imaginative
storytelling and teenage Anneâ€s wide-eyed mood swings, this adaptation leans kid-friendly.― —
USA Today“I wanted to dislike Anne Frankâ€s Diary: The Graphic Adaptation because books
about Anne usually feel opportunistic or simplistic. But this comic-book version, authorized by the Anne
Frank Foundation, is a monumental achievement. In large part thatâ€s because it wears its importance
lightly. . . . [I]t captures Anneâ€s teenage-ness: her love of drama, her rabid jealousy of her perfect
sister, Margot, her appreciation of the physical comedy provided by the tacky van Daan adults. She feels like
a real person, not a symbol. And thereâ€s so much humor in these illustrations! Polonsky draws
kinetically, varying panel size and bringing in little jokes and references from art history and advertising. He
draws Anne with mobile, animated features and huge eyes. Folman nimbly provides historical context the
original diary lacks; this version clarifies what was happening in the outside world as Anne was writing. But
Folman also includes several full pages of unfiltered, unillustrated diary pages, showing real respect for
Anneâ€s writerly voice. In an afterword, Folman says he only used 5 percent of the entire original diary; it
feels like much more.― —Tablet“Folman and Polonsky have reclaimed Anne Frank in all of her
humanity, and they allow us to witness for ourselves her beauty, courage, vision and imagination, all of th
