The moment I was about to leave Mr. Frank, my boss comes rushing towards me. “Meip, I need your help in a favor. My daughter Margot has been called up.” mumbled Mr. Frank. I did not have to think twice to answer. Mr. Frank and his family were good people and they or anyone else did not deserve to be treated horribly. “Mr. Frank of course I will help but no…

Even after their capture, Miep did not give up on helping everyone in the…

their life. Anne Frank was very patient, she had the patience to keep quiet when she could have been doing what she wanted as a child that she was. She had to be patient waiting in the secret annex for her food to come (a young woman named Miep Gies provided for them.)

to be starting with the differences. I’m bad at writing openings, so the rest of the paragraphs are going to look longer than this one. One of the biggest differences in the movie is that instead of writing and meeting Zlata Filipović, they meet Miep Gies.
