Website dedicated to Anne Frank
On 12 June 1942 Anne Frank celebrated her thirteenth birthday. One of her favourite presents was a diary with a checked cover, which she had picked out together with her father. Anne was also given flowers, candy and books, she baked cookies for her teachers and classmates, and she gave a party for her friends. A few weeks later she had to go into hiding, together with her parents and her sister Margot. The first thing Anne packed to take with her was her diary.
