Part 2

Summary:

Anne comes to love the hiding place she lives in called the Annex. Anne is excited to meet to new people that are going to be living with her! The van Daans are also living here to be in hiding just like the Frank's. Anne does not want to go outside anymore because she's afraid she will get captured by the Nazi's. Anne doesn't have a good relationship with her mother and sister because they are different from her. Anne's father and herself are the only ones who really connect with each other. A couple days later, people had thought that the Frank's had disappeared but in reality they told friends that they moved to Switzerland to trick Gestapo (Secret Police). The Frank's and the van Daans don't get along with each other. They fight constantly about random things. Anne always gets afraid of when the door bell ring because she's afraid that it might be the Gestapo. Anne spends her day studying for french, history and math. There are a new set of couple who settle in, Miep and Jan. Jan lives in Anne's room and he tells Anne all the stories on whats going on outside, that people are committing murders and such. Anne becomes so much more thankful that she gets to be living in a hiding spot.

Review:

What I have read this week was very interesting. It had some juicy stories that you can imagine. What I have learned in this weeks reading is that living in a hiding spot is like life or death. If you make it a bit obvious at all you can be dead very soon. This was no fun and games. What they were going through was probably the most scariest thing you can go through.

Focus:

Authors Point of View and Purpose

Anne's point of view in writing her diary was that she liked to write and her birthday present was a diary so why not write in it. The purpose of this was defiantly for her to look back and see what she has went through but that was not a case in this situation. She wanted to go back to her stories in the future and tell people all about it like maybe her kids some day but that didn't and couldn't happen.
