Describe The Relationship Between Anne Frank And The Van Daan

In a part of the book the Franks did not want to bring their cat because they knew they was going to be short of food. Peter brought his cat with him into hiding and Mr. Van Daan wanted to get rid of their cat when Mrs. Van Daan wanted to keep the cat. Another way I find the two families different is the Van Daans stole food. In a part of the book the Van Daans stole bread from their family and the Franks. After they stole the Franks told the Van Daans they would rather starve than steal from their children. At the end of the book the Van Daans broke into the safe, where all the food was and stole bread from all the families.

Peter was depressed about his situation and was very shy. That was until Anne brought some joy in his life. She talked to him constantly and enjoyed his company, as he enjoyed hers. The first connection between Peter and Anne is when they first moved in. Peter got a pocket knife and cut out the yellow Star of David and threw it in a fire. Anne cut hers out too but couldn't throw it in. She still held onto it even though the Nazi's forced them to wear it. This shows that she still cares about her religion, even though it was used against her. She said, "It's funny, I can't throw mine away. I don't know why." Peter was confused at first but just went along with it. Eventually, their hatred turned into passion and that turned into love. Sadly they'd die before they would get

Peter's going on sixteen, a shy, awkward boy whose company won't amount to much.” (Frank 165). Anne thought of Peter as a let down. Because of his “lone wolf” personality that greatly differs from Anne bold personality, they don't seem like a good fit; but later they becomes closer. After bonding over books, Anne goes on to state, “Kitty, I sound like someone who's in love and can talk about nothing but her dearest darling. And Peter is a darling.” (Frank 165). Anne's use of the word darling shows how fond she's become of Peter. They read together and talk about serious topics, that not even the adults care to think about. Although Anne has grown and changed through the duration of the novel, she still remains the same in one way.

Many of these secret homes were on busy streets that Nazis patrolled frequently. Anne Frank’s family was one of these Jews and took up residence in the hidden rooms above her father’s former office. As the end of the war neared, Nazi soldiers began to get worried and cared less about apprehending Jews than they did about killing the ones they already had taken as prisoner.

Many, many people suffered during the Holocaust war. The Jews in particular were in grave danger. The drama ‘Anne Frank’ outlines so many ways that this historical event caused a shift in the mood of the characters and their relationships. Before the Holocaust, Anne Frank was just an ordinary Jewish girl living in Germany. A German leader named Adolf Hitler developed a plan to destroy the Jews and to rule over the specific places where they lived. What Hitler did to these poor Jews, and the sheer terror they endured at the hands of this Nazi leader is purely unfathomable.

To begin with, Anne and Peter’s personalities have many similarities and differences. Anne is very outgoing, talkative, and optimistic.On page 728 Anne is talking to Mr.Dussel and in their conversation about allergies she says, “How dreadful. You must be terribly lonely”. If Anne was outgoing she probably wouldn't have had the courage to talk to Mr.Dussel like that, or at all. On the other hand, Peter's personality is quiet, respectful, and more reserved than Anne’s. When Anne gave Peter a present for Mousci, he said

Peter is quiet and a shy boy. He has many duties chopping wood, fetching vegetables and potatoes from downstairs, and looking out for his cat. Anne thought he was boring and awkward. She later thought different and in up falling in love with him after she found him as a decent boy.

First I will talk about Peter and Anne, in the play Peter and Anne's first impressions were that they disliked each other because there personalities were polar opposite, Anne is a very talkative, energetic girl and Peter is a shy, introverted boy. Some differences between the book and the play is Peter is a very kind, clumsy kid in the book but, in the play he's a fiery hot-headed kid. Also Anne is more disrespectful and rude to her parents and the other adults in the play, but in the book she keeps more of her anger towards her mom and the other adults to herself, she doesn't really disrespect them as much. Some similarities of Peter in the book and the play is, that he tries to shy away from everyone and keep to himself and he really only plays with his cat Mouchi or talks to Anne. Some

Many people were hurt by Adolf Hitler's plans and one thing he achieved was killing six million Jewish people including children. Anne Frank and her family were one of them. They lived in a secret and tiny annex where Otto used to work. They started off just going to stay there for a few months till the Allied Forces could invade Holland but that didn’t work out. In the drama wrote by Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett eight people crowded into annex for 2 long years not being able to go outside. Many historical events were impacted in the drama Anne Frank. Even though these problems took place outside of the secret annex it changed the mood and relationships of the character.

At first, Anne and Peter never spoke to each other. But during Act II scene 1, they warm up to each other and become friends. On page 265, Peter had told Anne, “Well, anytime you want to let off steam, you can come into my room.” Peter and Anne now truly care for each other. In Scene 2, it’s shown that Anne visits Peter’s room often. Mrs Frank and Mrs Van Daan do not like this change very much, because, as stated on pg. 268, Anne believes that they’re awful and “treating [them] as if [they] haven’t left the nursery.”

Towards the beginning of the play, Peter and Anne have a teasing and kind of playful relationship. They don’t totally like each other, but they’re also very different. Anne is closer to her father than anyone else, but she doesn’t really enjoy her mother. Anne and Margot are fairly close, but Anne seems pretty jealous of Margot and her looks. Mrs. and Mr. Van Daan seem kind of rude to her.

Compare and contrast the relationship between Anne and Peter at the beginning of the play and later on in the play. Anne’s relationship with Peter in the beginning of the play is very quiet because peter doesn’t really talk to Anne he just says a couple of words then walks away. They aren’t really close in the beginning,Peter is shy in the beginning also. Later in the play peter starts to warm up to Anne, starts talking more to her. Peter and Anne actually

After months of disagreement, Anne and her mother finally start to get along. Anne becomes more sympathetic to her mother, and realizes that some of her past entries about her mother were very cruel and hotheaded. Now, Anne does her best to care for her mother and also keep her mouth shut at times. She tries not to take things as serious, as well. She does her best to mature when it comes to her and her mother’s relationship.

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. Anne Frank lived in Holland and went into hiding when her sister, Margot, got a letter to go to a reception camp. The Franks faced terrifying moments during hiding. 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,
