The Diary of Anne Frank is a remarkably moving book about the short life of a young girl and her family. 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. Anne Frank’s once secret diary has introduced the immense suffering and horror that occurred during the Holocaust.

Firstly, discovering the truth settles the unclear side of any situation. During Liesel’s life in Germany, she grows to develop a very intellectual way of thinking. This approach allows her to work through many issues that happen in her life. Liesel figures out a problem that involves “The word communist + a large bonfire + a collection of dead letters + the suffering of her mother + the death of her brother = the Führer” (Zusak 115). When Liesel’s brother died and her mom gave them both up, Liesel had no idea who was the cause of it all. But once Liesel realizes Hitler was the cause, the unclear side of her life was now telling the truth. The innocence of not knowing was now replaced with the experience of understanding. This new discovery fills her with rage but heals a part of her that had been broken for a very long time.

These emotions are demonstrated when Hans Hubermann is forced to join the German Army during World War II. Once Hans leaves, Rosa Hubermann and Liesel Meminger are left with the question of whether or not Hans will ever come home. After endless months of praying and hoping that Hans would return home safely, “[Liesel] and Rosa finally receive a detailed letter from Hans” (479).

Maddie can be characterized as a misinterpreted murderer, empathetic, and foremost, abnormal.
