Anne Frank's Diary was a small checkered notebook that locked. According to the 1959 movie, she received it on one of the first days that the family was in hiding in The Annex in Amsterdam. Seems to me that she may have received it under different circumstances in the book.
Anyway, I have searched and searched for a similar diary without any success which is a shame but I did find two interesting red diaries here as choices for you if you are looking for a diary to take the place of Anne Frank's Diary.
If you have a young lady who enjoyed Anne Frank's story in book or movie form, you might want to choose the less expensive but still quite nice one of the two. CR Gibson's one-year diary (shown below) is a very nice option and it is an affordable choice. It features a quilted vinyl cover that is called 'bombshell red' and special construction so that it will lie flat. It features two days per page and is perfect for recording thoughts and special occasions.
The second choice is the deluxe leather model shown at the top of this page and it is very nice, complete with a heart-shaped, working lock. It features archival, acid-free pages that are trimmed with gilt. A beautiful choice, it would make an amazing journal.
Either one of these journals combined with a copy of The Diary of Anne Frank book or movie, would make a very memorable gift.
