She is a young, teenage girl of the Jewish faith. The story takes place during the holocaust, so Anne and her family are hiding in a Secret Annex.

He teaches her most of her subjects including Algebra and English.Edith Frank, Anne and Margots mother, has a horrible relationship with Anne. She does not fit the image of what a mother should be according to Anne. It seems as though she al ports takes Margots side which really ticks Anne off. gumshoe Van D aan is the son of another family hiding with the Franks. He appears to be boring at first to Anne, but soon enough they fall in love. slam is a bit older than Anne, but that doesnt stop them from having a relationship. He starts to cling to her and Anne finds out he does not like religion. Both of these are fences why Anne eventually dumps him. He does not even make the smallest attempt to change his ways which disgusts Anne.Petronella Van Daan is Peters mom. She does not get along with Anne at all. In fact, she criticizes Anne constantly and flirts with Mr. Frank which really gets Anne mad. How invariably, Anne finds her easier to talk to than her own mother.Hans Van Daan is Peters dad and Mrs. Van Daans wife. He much criticizes Anne like most of the adults.Albert Dussel look ats a room with Anne and is the last one to arrive in the Secret Annex. He was a dentist before he went into hiding. Anne likes him at first, but soon she discovers his true personality and has an diametr al opinion of him. Occasionally, she would do things to annoy him on purpose.A secondary character in the book is Peter Wessel, a young man who Anne crushes on. Anne often dreams of Peter and once dreamt of him touching her cheek. She hopes that they can be unneurotic when it is safe to come out of hiding.PlotAnne Frank is a normal teenage girl liveliness a perfectly normal life until she finds out that the dictator of Germany, Adolph Hitler, is executing all Jews for no safe(p) reason. Her and her family are forced to go into hiding so the Nazis dont take them away to tautness camps. They hide in an attic behind a bookcase in Mr. Franks office. They call it the Secret Annex. The three members of the Van Daan family (Petronella, Hans, and Peter) and Mr. Dussel, a power dentist, also hide with the Franks for their own safety.The rising exertion is when the family is sitting around the radio listening to the watchword about the ongoing war. They hear that things are getting bett er and the war is on the verge of ending. However, undiagnosed to the Franks, Van Daans, and Mr. Dussel, things really arent getting better.The climax of the story is when Hitler was informed that there are Jews hiding in an annex. Hitler sends Nazis to go and find them. The viii of them are discovered and they are no longer safe.The falling action is when the characters were taken off to concentration camp. They knew they were probably going to die, but tried to look on the lustrous side. They all were sepa roved except for Margot and Anne who stayed together.The resolution is when Miep finds Annes diary left in the annex. She was looking around in the room after they had been taken away. Miep saw a plaid cloth and went to pick it up. The diary, she soon learned, was chthonic the cloth and an inspirational diary at that.Theme(s)I believe the main theme is isolation in two different ways. The first is physical because the Franks, Van Daans, and Mr. Dussel are physically cut-off from the rest of the world. It is adept the eight of them cramped inside a small annex. They cannot go outside, they can barely even make noise, and they lived on the akin foods for a while. They are isolated from the outside world.The isolation theme of this book is also amiable because Anne feels isolated from her family and friends hiding in the secret annex. Even while all eight of them are in the same room, Anne feels cut-off from most of the people there, especially her mother. Inside Anne, she is as far away from her mother as she can be, even if theyre sharing a chair. Anne feels the same way about Mrs. Van Daan and others hiding with her isolated.ConflictsThe interlocking of Anne Frank The Diary of a Young Girl involves the Germans and the Jews. The story takes place in the middle of orb War II and the Holocaust. The Germans, or Nazis, are executing all Jews under Adolph Hitlers command. Jews were sent to concentration camps, which is the same as saying death row. A lo t of Jews were sent into hiding, but most were discovered by the German army. The Franks, Van Daans, and Mr. Dussel are hiding from the Nazis in this book.Those hiding in the Secret Annex were avoiding concentration camp, extreme torture, and death. They did not have a choice to hide unless they wanted to die, and would not have a choice to go to the camp if they were found. The Franks, Van Daans, and Mr. Dussel must keep their cover, stay quiet, and wait in hiding until the war is over and it is safe for a Jew to walk the streets in Holland.Important PassagesAnne says, I keep my ideals, because in spite of everything I still believe that people are really earnest at heart. I think this is a very inspirational quote. Anne is facing death at an un get alongn time, yet she is still very positive. This should instigate use to stay positive. The next time we are faced with a onerous situation and are down with pessimism, we can think of Anne Frank. This innocent girls problem was prob ably ten time as worse as what we are facing nevertheless she still looks on the bright side as should we when facing an obstacle.Anne also say, Parents can only give good advice or put them on the right paths, but the final forming of a persons character lies in their own hands. I think this is a good passage from the book because it explains that you should be your own person and you are in the drivers seat of your life. You can be whatever you want to be no matter what others tell you. I think this is good advice for a lot of kids. Even though others can guide you through life, ultimately you make your own decisions about your life. You control your life, use it wisely, do what you love, and have fun doing itVocabularyFlorin a cupronickel hit of Great Britain, formerly equal to two shillings or the tenth part of a pound and contain in circulation equal to 10 new pence after decimalization in 1971Palpitation an unusually or abnormally rapid or violent beating of the heartGibe t o utter mocking or scoffing wordsOpklap Dutch type of bed, which folds against the wall to look like a bookcase with curtains before it make do to bring about, accomplish, or obtain by scheming or underhand methodsFaze to cause to be disturbed or disconcertedCalligraphy highly decorative handwritingFinicky excessively grouchy or fastidiousSaboteur a person who commits or practices sabotageParagon a ideal or pattern of excellence or of a particular excellenceUniversal ConnectionAnne Frank The Diary of a Young Girl is about an entire race of Jews beingness executed just because they are Jewish. Racism in the world today is comparable to the Holocaust because they were both discrimination against a race for no good reason. Now in most cases racism today is not as extreme, but it is still racial discrimination. It was wrong back then and it is wrong now. This is a connection surrounded by the book and the world today.I can make a personal connection to this book because I sometimes feel as if adults are out to get me when they criticize me. All kids hate being criticized by adults and find at least one adult annoying, including me. Anne had bad relationships with the adults there and I know how she feels because Ive been there before. Sometimes, you just want to talk back to a teacher or scream at a coach, but what makes it worse is you know you cant. Anne felt this way in the book and Ive felt this way before in life. This is how I connect to this book personally.Reflective QuestioningI would ask Anne Frank so many questions if I had the chance when she was alive. I would ask things like what was it like hiding for years, did you ever think you would be found, and what went through your mind when you were found. However, I think the first questions I would ask are, Did you ever think your diary would be published and have millions of copies sold? If you knew you did, would you have added anything or taken anything out before its publishing? I would ask that b ecause a lot of what she wrote was personal and I would hate to share all of my personal feelings and thoughts with millions of strangers all around the world. I would like to know if she felt the same.I would rate this book a five of ten. It wasnt one of the worst books I have ever read, but it was understandably not one of the best. I do not like stories that date that far back I like books that are more modern. Also, I found it boring that it was the same thing every day they ate the same foods, she writes her adoration for Peter, she complains about the adults, and she writes that she will one day be free. Another reason I did not like it is that it was too slow and took too long to read. I understand it is a classic, and the fact it is a true story is unbelievable. However, it is just not my kind of book. I prefer a book easier to relate to, or a book about a subject I am interested in.
