In fact, Anne was a young girl who started writing a diary at age thirteen in June 12, 1942. Additionally, The Museum of Tolerance helps people to understand that they must respect people's color, race, and beliefs .

What Anne is explaining in her diary is what she has been doing in her hard life as a Jew, she somehow always is finding the good. “ Every time I write to you something special seems to have happened, but they are more often unpleasant than pleasant things” (Frank 108) This is an example of Anne’s writing changing subjects,…
She finds it difficult to understand why the Jews are being singled out and persecuted. Anne also confronts her own identity. Though she considers herself to be German, her German citizenship has been revoked, and though she calls Holland her home, many of the Dutch have turned against the Jews. Anne feels a tremendous solidarity with her aggrieved people, and yet at the same time she wants to be seen as an individual rather than a member of a persecuted group. Since Anne’s diary is a true personal account of a life in hiding, it is inappropriate to analyze it as a novel or other work of fiction.…
Not understanding her mother’s wishes, Anne mistakes her mother’s intensions. Rather than thinking of her family’s safety, Anne selfishly thinks of herself. “I was so damn mad after her letter, I felt like taking the NAACP convention to Centreville” (Moody 284). She acted like the typical defiant teenager, or a three-year-old, deliberately disobeying her parents. Moody thought that her mother’s reason to keep her in the house when she returned home was because Moody did not come home often; and so her mother wanted to spend as much time with her.…
She gave me Anne’s diary she kept. I took it, and immediately started to look for a publisher. I knew this is what she would’ve wanted. She wanted this published. She wanted to tell her story.…
During World War II, the Nazis (led by Adolf Hitler) led the homicide of six million Jews. This was a horrible event that deserves recognition. Hitler also led his armies to try to conquer all of Europe. During these events, there was a family that lived in Amsterdam by the name of the Franks.

In her diary, Anne Frank, much like George Orwell, has a “desire to push the world in a certain direction” and to emphasize the kind of society other people should begin to strive toward. A Jewish teenager living in Holland during the Holocaust, Anne is forced into hiding and must bear witness the atrocities and anti-semitism brought forth by Adolf Hitler and the Nazis. Using a diary she received for her birthday, she recounts her life during the Holocaust and her views on the world and how they gradually change as time goes on. Anne doesn’t actively strive to change the world or society too an extreme, however she does give the reader insight on how she felt during this time in her life and how things should be different. By using repetition,…
I strongly think that a good author should have a passion for writing. If you do not enjoy writing, your piece of literature will not be top notch. Anne Frank had a large passion and amazing gift of writing. She could write all day and make it a great piece of writing. Anne Frank had many pieces of literature but her diary was the greatest of them all.…
The different perspectives in Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl informed my own understanding about injustice by commenting on the courage and strength of people during difficult situations, identifying the horrible acts that occurred during the Holocaust, and detailing the similarities between the lives of those who died and today’s individuals. Anne, her family, and the van Daans lived in constant fear of being discovered but found strength in each other. In this instance, Anne wrote, “I could go on for hours about all the…
When I first read Anne Frank's The Diary of Anne Frank, I was overwhelmed with grief and anger at the injustice and intolerance that had led to Anne Frank's death, but her honesty and the very existence of the book gave me hope, too. It was the first time I really understood the power of words an selfless acts: Anne Frank's words lived on, and they had the power to change lives,but one person stood out the most that was Hermine “Miep” Gies. We owe the existence of the book to Miep Gies, the tremendously courageous and just woman who helped Anne Frank and her family hide from the Nazis. Gies not only risked her own life to provide the Franks with food and supplies, but she found, saved, and eventually shared Anne"s diary. A secretary for Otto…
Anne writes in her diary a few private thoughts about herself. Anne simply acted like a curious teenage girl. When she wrote it in, it appears that she simply thought out loud and recorded her thoughts. Instead of confiding in her own mother and asking her questions, she wrote them to Kitty. Anne decides to describe her own anatomy to Kitty.…
She feels anger but, much more sorrow as she flips through these pages, seeing horrid things about her mother. She realized she was the one who mentioned hate, not Mummy. Anne then says, “It’s true she doesn’t…
