While it does contain some invented dialogue and surrealist scenes, reproductions of Frank’s actual diary in the book hew to her exact words. Adapted by Israeli filmmaker Ari Folman and illustrator David Polonsky and intended for young readers, the book compresses Frank’s actual diary entries into a condensed version of her true story.

The graphic novel adaptation of the diary was released in 2018 with the full authorization of the Anne Frank Fonds. The foundation also defended the inclusion of Frank’s original writing by saying, “We consider the book of a 12-year-old girl to be appropriate reading for her peers.” In a statement to JTA about various challenges to the graphic adaptation, the Anne Frank Fonds, the Switzerland-based foundation that controls the copyright to her diary, said it was “generally concerned that ignorance about the Shoah, relativization or denial of history are on the rise, especially in the United States.” Maddux said that she herself had not read the book and did not immediately know what the “inappropriate content” in question was. “It’s a fictional novel that has some inappropriate content in it.” Maddux added that the book “was removed due to minimization of the Holocaust,” and said, “Library spaces in the district currently have factual accounts of The Diary of Anne Frank.” “That’s not the actual diary of Anne Frank,” she said. The district backed up that sentiment, Maddux told JTA. In the challenge, the parent had reportedly written that the book was “not a true adaptation of the Holocaust.” The removal at Vero Beach High School was spurred by at least one challenge from a parent in the district affiliated with the conservative activist group Moms For Liberty, according to the Treasure Coast News, a local publication. Other books about the Holocaust recently removed by public schools include Art Spiegelman’s “Maus,” which a Tennessee district pulled from its middle school curriculum last year, and Jodi Picoult’s “The Storyteller,” which was removed from another Florida district last month following a parental challenge. Last year, a school district in Texas ordered its librarians to remove the same book before reversing course a week later following public outcry. Maddux told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency the book was determined to be “not age appropriate.” The principal’s office of Vero Beach High School, which is located in a community on Florida’s east coast, recently decided to remove “Anne Frank’s Diary: The Graphic Adaptation” from its school library, according to Cristen Maddux, a spokesperson for the Indian River County school district. It is the second known instance of this particular edition of the famous Holocaust book being swept up by conservatives seeking to purge schools of literature they deem inappropriate. In this case, the diary version and Het Achterhuis do not actually differ in content, but Anne did make stylistic adjustments to the text and reinforced the image of the bombing.( JTA ) – A public high school in Florida has removed an illustrated adaptation of Anne Frank’s diary from its library. For instance on Sunday when 350 British planes dropped ½ million kilos of bombs on IJmuiden, how the houses trembled like a wisp of grass in the wind, (.).’ How scared the ladies are during the raids.
In Het Achterhuis, Anne changed this to: ‘Although I tell you a lot, still, even so, you only know very little of our lives. How scared the ladies are here sometimes (for instance on Sunday they used 350 planes to drop 500,000 kg on IJmuiden) how the houses shake from the bombs, (.).’ In her diary, Anne wrote: ‘Although I tell you a lot, still, even so, you only know very little of our lives.
The people in hiding had had to wait helplessly and hope the annex would not be hit by a stray bomb. On 29 March 1944, Anne wrote about the heavy bombing of the port of IJmuiden, north of Amsterdam.
