Anne Frank ... only kept her diary while hiding fromthe Nazis. This diary told the story of horror that theNazis carried out. Anne Frank hid from the Nazis formany years, ...
They were shearing this room with the Van Daan family, close friends to their family. Since that day a different life started, a life they didn’t imagined, and didn’t know what road would take. Living in the secret room wasn’t easy; hiding scared every day and night, and running always with a threatening life. Worse, living with the Van Daan’s, a family Anne didn’t like, with their little naughty daughter.
Anyway, they were protected by people that gave them food and took good care of them. The Van Daan’s were becoming more and more impolite every day that passed; cause the pressure they were having about the war. Anne cried all nights wishing the end of the war. They had a radio that was the only way to receive notice of the war. Instead of hearing it finishing, they just heard bad news. In the city, things were hard, but in the secret room things weren’t easier.
It was very boring, so Anne, Margot and Peter, the only son of the Van Daan’s, studied with the books that were in the room. It was the only thing to do, but they were old and the 3 students already knew all the books. They lived for 2 years in the secret room. August 1 of 1944 was the last day Anne wrote in her diary, 3 days after, the Nazis discovered the secret room, and both families were sent to forced work. In March of 1945, Anne died with a terrible disease called typhoid in Bergen-Belsen concentration camp. My favorite part of the book was when she begins to confide in Peter.
They start to tell each other what they are feeling, what it is that bothers them so much, they tell each other of all their wishes and dreams. And eventually they both come to realize that they each share a secret crush on one another. My least favorite part of the book is how she has to put up with Mrs. Van Daan’s complaining, Mr.
Van Daan who is always in an uproar over something Anne does, Mr. Dussel constantly shying her, and now her father telling her she needs to show more compassion for her mother! She begins to feel like no one ever listens, she can never seem to please anyone. I would recommend this book for you to read. It is a book of history and miserable war is. It also shows how Anne maintains a love of life and a belief in the basic goodness of mankind.
