More books added to my list

I remembered some other books that I had forgotten about. I read the Diary of Anne Frank. This was an excellent read. I learned more about myself and my heritage from this book. I am German, but by no means associate with the cruelty that the Germans did to the Jewish people. After reading this book, I wanted to know more about the Holocaust. My daughter and I read these other informative books together. It was so interesting.

I also read Her Father's Daughter by Mollie Poupeney. This book is about a girl at the age of 12, whose father is absent most of the time. On occasion when he is home, he is drunk. She learns that in order to survive she must grow up quickly, and ultimately learns from her mistakes.
