Anne Frank story now a graphic novel

AMSTERDAM

The Anne Frank House Museum launched a graphic novel version of the teenage Jewish diarist’s biography Friday, hoping to bring her story and death in a Nazi concentration camp to a wider audience. Spokeswoman Annemarie Bekker said the publication is aimed at teenagers who might not otherwise read Anne Frank’s diary, already the most widely read document to emerge from the Holocaust.

The Anne Frank biography, authorized by the museum, is a collaboration between American author Sid Jacobson and artist Ernest Colon. Publisher Hill & Wang will launch the graphic narrative in the U.S. later this month.
