Anne frank and tasting the sky are two great pieces of literature. The timeline in anne frank is about the holocaust, and in tasting the sky it is discussing the Israeli and Palestinian conflict. In tasting the sky, the main character is a young girl named ibtisam. Ann Frank, however, is a little different. Anne frank isn’t really a book it’s a diary. Anne Frank wrote in her diary about what happened to her during a short time period in her life. There are many similarities and differences within the two literary works.
One similarity for the two of them is they both had a depressing and difficult life as young girls. Israel occupied Palestine; meanwhile the Nazis were in the process of killing six million Jews. Another comparison is, the

Both had complicated, troublesome and depressing life as a kid. Anne and her family had to go into hiding; while Ibtisam and hers didn’t necessarily go into hiding they just left their house. Anne stayed into hiding for two years. The Israeli and Palestinian war lasted for six days.
Ibtisam Barakat and Anne Frank obviously had different personalities. Anne was eleven when the Holocaust started and ibtisam was only three when the six day war started. Even though they are extremely different in some ways, they were both very energetic. While ibtisam had no love life, anne had a boyfriend. She would always daydream about him and how she hoped she would get close with him. Ibtisam would go into her journal and write about how she felt. Anne also did the same; she would write about what happened to her and what she did that day.
Understanding the fact that the girls were under a lot of stress and still had hope, it is very significant and just represents how mature they were at such a young age. Dealing with someone, and/or group telling you to leave your country isn’t something you would expect at that age. That was the biggest comparison for the both of them. Sadly, Anne died at the age of thirteen (because of a disease), but ibtisam is still alive, lives in the United States, married and has kids. That is the biggest contradiction for the two of them. There are many differences and similarities between the two of them. Anne Frank and Tasting the Sky are two great pieces of
In the Diary of Anne Frank, the two characters I chose to compare and contrast are Mrs. Frank and Mrs. Van Daan. These two ladies are similar and different in many ways. They are both middle aged women that live in Amsterdam. When the Holocaust began in 1939, Mrs. Frank and Mrs. Van Daan moved into the secret Annex with their families.
One thing they have in common is they are all where home schooled. They all believed in the star of David religion. They are all Jewish kids or teens living in the secret annex with other families. They all died differently. However, I think this is where the similarity between the three teenagers ends.
Sadly, on the way her younger brother passed away, and Liesel is the only one that meets her new parents, a German couple, Hans and Rosa Huberman. While in The Diary of Anne Frank, Anne is a Jewish girl, raised in a Jewish family. Her life is the perfect life of a young thirteen-year-old, she has a loving family, many friends, and even a boy that likes her. However, all of this was taken away when the raiding for Jews started to increase in Germany. Her family is forced to go into hiding in the attic at her dad's business building.

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.

The Diary of Anne Frank by Anne Frank highlights Anne and Peter’s contrasting outlooks on the war and their imprisonment in the Secret Annex.

The Diary of Anne Frank shows that even though there is so much evil in the world, ultimately, goodness, honesty, and morality will triumph because Anne waits to witness a change in the world and constantly hopes for a better tomorrow. “I

One way they are similar is because they both went through war, and kept a diary of all their occurrences.

Lastly, they were both around the same age when they started the war and writing in their diaries.
