Anne Frank was a smart one.

I'm currently reading Tales from the Secret Annex, which I bought at the Anne Frank House in Amsterdam. It's a collection of short stories, fairy tales, personal reminisces, and even an unfinished novel that Anne wrote while in hiding during World War II. Some of them are just okay, some of them are really good, and a couple are pretty WOW. This is one of the WOWs, called Give! It's incredibly deep for someone so young, and it ties into my blog post from a few days ago and pretty much sums up my thoughts on the subject. Here's a link to the full text; ignore the cheesiness of it being read outloud, it's the only one I could find.
