Pincus' text is rather simplistic, straightforward, and informative. Hermine "Miep" Gies (née Santrouschitz) was one of the Dutch citizens who hid Anne Frank, her family (Otto Frank, Margot Frank, Edith Frank-Holländer) and four other Dutch Jews (Fritz Pfeffer, Hermann van Pels, Auguste van Pels, Peter van Pels) from the Nazis in an annex above Otto Frank's business premises during World War II. When the Nazis came for Anne Frank’s family and the other Jewish friends who had been hidden in the secret annex, Anne left behind the diary that would be read and cherished around the world. Miep and the Most Famous Diary: The Woman Who Rescued Anne Frank's Diary is a children's picture book written by Meeg Pincus and illustrated by Jordi Solano.
