A suburban Dallas school district pulled copies of the Bible and a graphic novel version of “Anne Frank’s Diary,” among other books, one day before classes began.
The books had been challenged by parents in Keller, a suburb of Dallas.
“Anne Frank’s Diary: The Graphic Adaptation” is an illustrated version of the bestselling classic written by a young Jewish girl in the Netherlands as she and her family hid from Nazi occupation forces. The story ended when the Franks were captured and sent to concentration camps; Anne and her sister Margot died, most likely of typhus, in the Bergen-Belsen camp.
