Germany during World War 2 was an extremely dangerous place to live and even though many Jewish families attempted to escape Germany’s Anti-Semitism, they were still trapped due to many countries putting a stop to immigration because they were not willing to take in any more Jewish immigrants. Anne’s family lived in the Netherlands. In the beginning of the war, they had to watch their relatives in Germany suffer under nazi rule, but thought that they were safe. As the war moved on, Anne’s father started to prepare for the inevitable prospect of someone in the family being deported, and started to prepare a secret apartment in a warehouse that was owned by the company that he used to own. The Frank family was forced to hide inside of the attic of ...
The plot for the story was for Anne and her family to hide from the Germans until the war was over. Hiding was hard for the Franks and Van Daans since they had to be extremely quiet when using things and living in the “Secret Annexe.” Those families hid there for 25 months.
Anne’s diary began on her thirteenth birthday. She had a normal life for a girl of her age, and valued the same things as any girl; she loved being with her friends, enjoyed school and already had established a passion for writing which she expressed through her diary. She first wrote “I hope I will be able to confide everything to you, as I have never been able to confide in anyone, and I hope you will be a great source of comfort and support,” it is established that Anne, although a very social young girl, felt that she could not confide in her friends. The tone with which she wrote and the trivial matters that she wrote about exemplify her young age and lack of maturity. She wrote for the sake of writing, and wrote about the happenings in her life. When the first signs of anti-Semitism started to show, signs of worry showed through her writing, but she never wrote too deeply about it.
Anne Frank and her family lived in Germany during the time following World War I. When the Nazi party came to power in Germany, the Frank’s were forced to flee Germany, and they moved to the Netherlands. Shortly after they moved, the Nazi’s invaded the Netherlands. In order the save their lives, the Franks went into hiding when Anne was at the age of 13. They hid in a “Secret Annex” located in the building where Mr. Frank used to run his business. They had 8 people hiding in a chain of rooms that was smaller than most mobile homes. Because food was being rationed during the war, the Franks, and those that were hiding with them, had to survive on only two ration books. Anne used to pass the time by writing in her diary. It was one of the only ways that she managed to survive and stay sane. She found comfort the words of her diary, and she wanted it to be saved so it could be published after the war. The family as a whole struggled to su...

Anne Frank was an ordinary girl who lived in Holland during the Nazi occupation. Her family went into hiding for two years in her father’s factory. Several non-Jewish friends helped the Franks and the Van Daans survive under difficult conditions. Anne was not able to explore the beauty and nature of the world since she was behind the safe walls of the Secret Annex. For two years, she wrote in her diary about her feelings and her relationship with her family and her first love Peter. Despite living during a challenging period of time for Jews, Anne has many similarities of teenagers, like myself, who live in the world today.
In June 1942 Anne received a diary for her 13th birthday. She began to write down her thoughts and experiences in the form of letters to an imaginary friend. One month later the Franks went into hiding in the office building. For the next two years the Frank family shared cramped quarters with four other Jewish people. In the ending the people she lived with were the ones that published her diary.
Anne believes that “Paper is more patient with people” and expresses her longing for a confidant to which she may share her deepest desires. Moreover, she also confides a typical girl’s affections for girl friends and boy crushes. Contrary to the light and amusing tone of the first few entries of Anne Frank, her revelation of her family background uncovers sneak-peeks to the Jewish life in the Second World War, including the restrictive laws implemented by Nazis against the particular group of people. Prior to Anne’s first diary entry, the Franks, namely Otto, Edith, and their children, Anne and Margot, had emigrated to Holland from Germany to escape Hitler’s propaganda of Anti-Semitism; however, soon, they realize that they had not been liberated yet from the claws of discrimination when Anne’s elder sister, Margot, was summoned by the S.S., the elite Nazi guards, for a call-up, implying that she would be sent to a concentration
On June 12, 1929, at 7:30 AM, a baby girl was born in Frankfort, Germany. No one realized that this infant, who was Jewish, was destined to become one of the worlds most famous victims of World War II. Her name was Anne Frank. Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl, by Anne Frank and B.M. Mooyaart, was actually the real diary of Anne Frank. Anne was a girl who lived with her family during the time while the Nazis took power over Germany. Because they were Jewish, Otto, Edith, Margot, and Anne Frank immigrated to Holland in 1933. Hitler invaded Holland on May 10, 1940, a month before Anne?s eleventh birthday. In July 1942, Anne's family went into hiding in the Prinsengracht building. Anne and her family called it the 'Secret Annex'. Life there was not easy at all. They had to wake up at 6:45 every morning. Nobody could go outside, nor turn on lights at night. Anne mostly spent her time reading books, writing stories, and of course, making daily entries in her diary. She only kept her diary while hiding from the Nazis. This diary told the story of the excitement and horror in this young girl's life during the Holocaust. Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl reveals the life of a young innocent girl who is forced into hiding from the Nazis because of her religion, Judaism. This book is very informing and enlightening. It introduces a time period of discrimination, unfair judgment, and power-crazed individuals, and with this, it shows the effect on the defenseless.
