So we have had to cut down on our food.” (page 167) This illustrates the shortage of food and bad living conditions caused by the war. Another piece of evidence is shown when Anne states in her diary at the end of Act two scene three, “We’re all in much better spirits these days. There’s still excellent news of the invasion… Maybe I’ll be back in school by fall.” (page 181) The quote in Anne’s diary reveals information about the invasion going on at the time, which brought hope to many that the war would soon end.

Anne was curious about why murders, lynching and mysterious fires were taking place in and around her community.

The main character of the story “Number the Stars” is Annemarie. She is a fast runner and she is very brave. My proof that she is a fast runner is that in the book it says, “Annemarie outdistanced her friend quickly, even though one of her shoes came untied as she sped…”. My proof that Annemarie is brave is that she looked one of the German soldiers directly in the eye. Almost nobody looked the soldiers in the eye.

Anne Frank was a little girl who lived in Amsterdam with her Father, they lived a normal life until the Holocaust took place and for forced Anne into hiding. Sadly the Nazis found out about the Franks hiding and who they were staying with, Otto Frank was they only one who survived. Anne Frank knew that she would even be living a sad and scary life.

Annemarie is really brave, she stood up to the German soldiers that stopped her in the woods when she was taking the package to Uncle Henrick. “I will take it” she said, “I know the way, and it’s almost light now.

In the play, The Diary of Anne Frank, Anne is a dynamic character who is disrespectful and immature in the beginning of the play. When Anna had a nightmare in the beginning of the play, her mother came into her room to comfort her. Her mother offered Anne water and to stay with her until she fell asleep, but Anne said it wasn’t necessary to stay. When Mrs. Frank stated, “But I’d like to start with you . . . Very much. Really.” Anne replied, “I’d rather you didn’t” (398). This scene demonstrates Anne is both immature and rude because she rejects her mother’s help. Her mother is likely very hurt by this rejection, especially since, as her mother leaves the room, Anne asks for her father instead. In the end of the play, Anne shows she is a dynamic character by displaying the character traits brave and thoughtful. While Peter and Anne

At first, Anne was terrified to go into hiding but her positivity and hope showed and taught many people lessons on how you should look at life. Anne had such a big influence on the people who read her diary. The play that was constructed off of her diary writings really lets us understand how and what Anne was feeling along with the others in the house. The Franks in addition to their friends, had people who helped them out while they were in hiding. This is one reason why Anne would have thought that people were really good at heart.

The group of people hiding in the secret annex was in need, they had no way of getting food or any other supplies. This is where Miep came in to help them. She brought them the food, plus all of the supplies that they needed, therefore, making them live much longer than they should have. In the play, you could tell how happy the family was to see her. On page 326, we read, “Thank you, Miepia. You shouldn’t have done it.” this was
