1.Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young GirlAnne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl
from Bantam
Price: $5.99

Customer Review:
I am presently living like a refugee, so I can say from experience this is a good way to understand what it means to be stuck in a room for four years, having done that myself.
This is what happens when wars get out of hand. Required reading for government workers.

Customer Review:
Honestly, I don't have much to add to what all the other reviewers are saying...this is a great little book (just a smudge over 200 pages) that is full of tidbits of advice, some that are very forward thinking, since the original book was published in 1960. My only minor complaint is that some of... more info

Well written, with really interesting vignettes of Eleanor's life. I found this to be one of the most (personally) motivational books I've read in a long time.

from Penguin
Price: $12.24

Customer Review:
For many Americans, Eleanor Roosevelt is more a myth than an actual person. In the Museum of American History in Washington, D.C. there is a whole floor devoted to American presidents, but just a small wing devoted to our First Ladies, or more specifically their inaugural gowns. While visiting the... more info

I recently picked this volume up when I visited Val-Kill her house a few miles away from the Hyde Park mansion.
