Summary Anne Frank’s story starts when she receives a diary from her parents on her thirteenth birthday.

Anne addresses it to “Kitty” as if she was a talking to her best friend, a true friend. She talked about her personal life, her friendship with other girls, her boy crushes and her performance at school. However, like all the other odds, everything changes after a month. On September 1st of 1939, Germany invades Poland and that’s where World War II starts. As Jews, they had to go hide for the fear for their lives. Nazis were gathering all Jews in concentration camps and they had no choice rather than hiding.

Dussel hid quietly so they wouldn’t get caught. Fortunately, there were a lot of books to read and a radio to keep them out of boredom. Anne still writes occurrences happening during the war. She widens her learning in politics and literature; she exerts effort in studying and writing during the time of hiding especially when she heard from the cabinet minister that he would put together personal accounts such as letters and diaries about the war. Unfortunately, at the near end of her diary, she struggles to fight oppression and deals with deprivation and confinement since her adolescence was taken from her due to the
Anne Frank was a young Jewish girl living in Amsterdam during the occupation by the Nazis. She was forced to go into hiding above her father's work for two years to avoid prison. During her time in hiding, she kept a diary and wrote about her experience. Frank writes about her loving and compassionate family and also mentions how she has built new relationships with the other families in the house. In her diaries, Frank frequently emphasizes the value of family, emphasizing how her trials were made easier by the presence of those she loved who understood what she was going through.
She was troubled by the news that Mr. Dussel brought of what was going on outside the annex. Scene 3, paragraph 312 “ Mr.Dussel: Right here in Amsterdam everyday hundreds of Jews disappear... “ This news from outside the annex made Anne have nightmares and put
During her confinement in the annex Anne often turns to the privacy of her diary to confide in. The diary is a place where“[Anne] can put all of her thoughts, all [her] feelings” (33), which is a luxury many of the other residents in the annex desire. During the play, we witness some of the direct quotes from Anne 's diary. Along with the humour and trivial problems that a teenager would write about, there are poetic and morose segments about her feelings about the holocaust and being trapped in the annex. She writes about being "surrounded by darkness and danger" (40); these sentiments from a 14-year-old girl gives insight to the forcibly accelerated way she grows up under such circumstances.
The book states that even though her parents didn’t care what kind of grades Anne got but only that she was happy. She was still passing all classes and was an above average pupil. She had high expectations for herself, which pushed her further in life and she learned how to write and developed a love for it. Without Anne Frank’s Creative young mind there wouldn't be so much information on Adolf Hitler, World War 2, or the concentration camps such as Buchenwald. If it were not for Anne Frank and Kitty,her diary, we would not actually know how bad life was for the Jews back in that time.
Anne Frank’s Character Development Throughout the War Throughout World War II Anne Frank was kept hidden away in a 500 square foot building they came to call the Secret Annexe. Anne Frank, her family, and the Van Daans endured difficult times of hunger, thirst, and lack of privacy cornered by walls for over two years. Anne confided her observations and feelings of the hard times within her diary she named Kitty. By writing in her diary both before and after the war, one could visibly notice how Anne went into the Annexe as a juvenile and came out as a young adult.
