Anastasia
Anastasia is a historical fiction diary that invites young readers to step inside the life of 13-year-old Anastasia, daughter of Tsar Nicholas and Tsarina Alexandra. The book covers the last five years of her life, moving from a pampered royal childhood to house arrest in 1917 and exile in Siberia. Perfect for middle-grade readers and fans of royal history, this moving and hopeful narrative uses the diary format to bring history vividly to life through the voice of a young girl.
Written with warmth by award-winning author Carolyn Meyer, Anastasia unfolds in a diary-style narration that feels intimate and accessible.

The experience is engaging thanks to its clear pace, vivid scenes, and a sense of immediacy that makes readers feel as if they are keeping a journal alongside her. The historical context—Russia’s upheaval, the impact on family life, and exile—provides thoughtful material for curious readers while staying age-appropriate.
