The newly released diary of 14 year old Rutka Laskier who is being described as “the Polish Anne Frank” vividly depicts the world crumbling around her as she came of age in the Jewish ghetto of Bedzin in 1943.  She died a few months later in Auschwitz.  A Polish friend safeguarded some 60 handwritten pages in Rutka’s notebook and recently made it’s existence known.
