The Holocaust was a horrible time for Jewish people and Anne and her Jewish family’s lives were completely turned upside down as a result. The war resulted in the deaths of countless people, mostly innocent people. Before the invasion on D-day and the end of the war not too long after, the rest of the world didn’t know the real disaster going on over seas.

Reading Frank's diary excerpts from Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl lets readers glimpse into the terrors that a young Jewish girl faced during the Holocaust. The tone of her diary goes through extreme change in a span of one month. In July 1942 she's excited for summer vacation, she mentions she's most excited because she no longer has to get tormented. By July her family has gone into hiding. While reading these excerpts, specifically, the last one, I wonder how someone could live their life day to day in constant fear. Yet, how she maintained the amount of hope and strength that she did. How she keeps her strength and perseveres through the unthinkable, keeping quiet all day and not knowing whether that was the day she would be caught. Yet, Frank always kept her hope and strength. In one of her final entries she writes, “Its difficult in times like these: ideals, dreams, and cherished hopes rise within us, only to be crushed by grim reality. It's a wonder I haven't abounded all my ideals, they seem so absurd and impractical. Yet I cling to them because I still believe, in spite of everything, that people are truly good at heart.” Anne used her diary to document her life and distract herself from the horrifying situation she and her family have found themselves in. Readers see Frank grow over the course of two years in hiding as not only a person, but also a writer. Psychologist Sara Staggs says, “Anne Franks diary beautifully captures coming of age in such dark times.” If Franks diary was full of fear and negative words, it wouldn't have been remembered. In the darkest of times Frank can still see the good, she has hope in herself and others, and she has the strength that no one else

The people hiding knew they were in trouble. Nazi officers questioned someone helping them hide which led to and investigation of all rooms of the building in the office. Soon the Nazi’s came to the room with the secret enterance behind a hinged bookcase. Once the discovery of the enterance to the hiding space the officer entered to arrest the people who spent two years in fear that this event would come. “I remember that day as if it were yesterday. I was so scared as I heard the officer with the gun run up the stairs,” Anne stated as she grew with anxiousness throughout the interview. AFter being caught by the Nazi’s their valuables were collected and they were given five minutes to head out of the annex. One thing that was not viewed as a valuable was Anne’s diary. Anne had spent two years writing in her diary. Each entry would be titled with “Dear Kitty,...” until her last entry right before she had to abandon it for her new life in concentration camp. Four days later she was sent to the camp Westerbork only to be sent to Auschwitz later in September. “ I remember the amount of happiness I felt when I was sent to the barracks and not to the gas chambers even if I still had to suffer the pain of a concentration camp. I wanted to survive as long as I could,” says Anne Frank. About two months after being sent to Auschwitz she was sent to Bergen-Belsen where she had to leave behind her mother, father, and more. She was sent with her sister Margot who is extremely ill currently. “ I am all bones right now and starving but I am try to fight even if my parents are probably still not alive. I miss my parents dearly,” states Anne as tears start down her face. Anne’s story is just one of many in this camp, but any story of this horrible time must be

Her mother, Edith Frank, her father, Otto Frank, and her older sister, Margot Frank, had all anticipated that this was coming and were prepared to live new lives. They had to be absolutely silent, or else they would be found, and had to share the attic with another Jewish family, the Van Daans, and another Jewish man, Albert Dussel. The attic, or the “Secret Annexe” as they called it, was very, very small, and really was only meant to sustain three or four people, not eight. Life was hard. All they had to eat were potatoes and rotten cabbage and such, and sometimes they even skipped meals. The most important thing was that they were alive and they had each other. Bombs would go off at night, burglars would come in, but the Jews in the Secret Annexe refused to give up. They survived by eating whatever they had, remaining silent, drinking water, and gaining warmth, so they wouldn’t freeze to death. One of Anne’s main survival techniques was writing in her diary. However, they remained hidden for 2 years until they were discovered and sent away to concentration camps. Today Anne’s story is widely known and her diary is the 2nd best-selling nonfiction book in the world, ranked just below the

From the years 1939 to 1945, the world was going through many negative changes. The Nazis started WWII ,which negatively affected the lives of people all around the world. The Jews were especially threatened by the Nazis as they had intent to exterminate the entire race. Many fled, many were captured, and many hid from the Nazis, but despite their efforts, not many survived. The people unfortunate enough were sent to labor camps which in most situations, they died either from starvation, illness, or being sentenced to death. In the play “The Diary of Anne Frank” a group of people try to hide from the Nazis and are successful for quite some time, but being enclosed in one building with the same people for years slowly broke their sanity.

Because of their Jewish beliefs, Frank and her family had to go into hiding in order to escape harm from the Nazi party, and the majority of entries revolve around this time spent in what they called “the Secret Annex”. Frank’s diary was published by her father after her death in the concentration camp at Bergen-Belsen in Germany because in her

(b) “The Secret Annex” during the time period of the Adolf Hitler’s reign is not an ideal setting because the Holocaust was taking place, there were several bombings and air raids and because there was a shortage of food in that time period. For these reasons, I would not consider visiting “The Secret Annex” during this time period. (c1) One reason why the setting of Anne’s diary was not ideal was because Anne’s diary was set during the Holocaust. The Holocaust was a sadistic and ruthless time period where over six million Jewish people and many others were killed in concentration camps. At this time, Germany had a dictator by the name of Adolf Hitler, who led the Nazi party and was responsible for a genocide. Anne, a Jewish girl, was in hiding during the Holocaust with the fear of being sent to a murderous concentration camp instilled inside of her. She writes in her diary, not only to have a friend but also so that one day people could read her diary and hear about the horrible ways that Jewish people were treated. She described this as she writes “Who has inflicted this upon us? Who has made us Jews different from all other people? Who has allowed us to suffer so terribly up till now?” (Frank 207). (d3) Anne says “Who has allowed us to suffer” describing how the Jewish people had to suffer tremendously during the Holocaust. How so many innocents were brutally murdered in the most inhumane ways possible and the rest who were not in the camps had to live out their days in constant fear that they would become a victim of the genocide. She also writes “who has made us Jews different from all other people?” showing that the Jewish people were separated from all others. They were treated differently and cold-heartedly. The Holocaust overall was a time of cruelty and unfairness as Anne described, making the

The frank family was separated and put into different camps, and after the camps where liberated Otto Frank went on a search for his family. Otto eventually learned that his wife and two children died in the camps. After learning he would never see his family again, Otto was given a gift. One of the people helped hid the Franks kept Anne’s diary safe and gave it to Otto(Linder

During the devastating time of World War II, a Jewish teenage girl wrote a diary about the gruesome events she witnessed, this diary was named, Diary of a Young Girl, Anne Frank.

They witnessed war outside their window and stayed in the same house without even going outside for about two years.To add on, the Franks had to keep in mind how every day they could be arrested or even die. Sadly Anne and her family are arrested and are sent to Auschwitz, a concentration camp where she would later die. While in hiding, the Franks and the Van Daans, who were also in hiding with them,
