The setting for The Diary of Anne
Frank is in a “Secret Annexe” in
Amsterdam, Holland. Anne and her family are not the only people that are hiding in the “Secret
Annexe,” the Van Daans live with them also. Anne draws a map in the book to show you a layout of the “Secret Annexe.” It’s pretty large, although with eight people living there, it’s quite crowded.
The plot for the story was for
Anne and her family to hide from the Germans until the war was over. Hiding was hard for the
Franks and Van Daans since they had to be extremely quiet when using things and living in the
“Secret Annexe.” Those families hid there for 25 months.
The theme for The Diary of Anne
Frank is to never lose hope, be patient, and be brave. Anne was very brave to give up her freedom and contact with friends and most family members to save her life. She never lost hope that the war would end either. She was also very patient to share a hiding place with seven other people.
Anne Frank is the protagonist.
Anne is a fourteen-year-old girl who likes to talk and writes in her diary, Kitty, about everything that goes on around her. She practices the Jewish faith, and because of that, she and her family go into hiding. She is very courageous and hopeful that the war will end soon. Anne has no religious freedom, or freedom what so ever, no contact with the outside world, a small living area, little food, and not much privacy.
Through all this, Anne still maintained hope and a good outlook on life.
The antagonists are the Germans.
They want to rid the world of anyone who isn’t German, mostly the Jews. Their leader is Adolf
Hitler. The Germans dropped bombs during the air strikes on
Holland, as Anne said in her diary.
The Germans also run the concentration camps where they take innocent people and made them work. They were extremely cruel to those who went. If they failed to do their tasks, the
Germans themselves would kill them. It’s people

    “The right good book is always a book of travel; it is about a life’s journey”. This quote by H.M. Tomlinson means that the people in the book grow throughout the story and can take people to different places by making them think of new ideas that go against their true thinking. I agree with the quote and interpretation. Two works of literature that help support the quote are To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee and “1984” by George Orwell. Literary elements that prove the quote true are characterization, and person versus society.…
