A Tragedy Revealed: A Heroines Last Days
A Tragedy Revealed: A Heroines Last Days
Today you are going to read an amazing story wrote by a man named Ernst Schnable, this story is about a young girl named Anne Frank. Anne Frank lives in Amsterdam. Anne and her family must go into hiding at the Secret Annex to hide from the Nazi’s. After two years of hiding they are found and taken away to a concentration camps. Today I will be telling you about Anne and some characteristics about her. Anne is very confident, energetic, and also very caring.

Anne is confidant in many ways, she is confident because when things go wrong or people start to think negative Anne stays strong, and positive. Anne always sees things on the bright side why think negative when you can think about things in a positive way. Anne also does not give up when she is taken away from her family and friends and sent away to a concentration camp. While Anne is away at the concentration camp she is kind of happy to be there because she gets to feel the cool breeze, smell the air, and see the sky. When other people saw how confident Anne was they thought why not be confident to and have hope in being free soon.

Anne is energetic because she is always talking, smiling, and playing around trying to have some fun. Before Anne went to the Secret Annex, she went to school and did normal things just as we do now. One day while she was at school she was talking so much that her teacher called her Ms. Quack Quack. Even though Anne has went into hiding she still trys to have some fun, though she must be quiet all day she still manages to have fun in any way possible.

Anne is also caring because she loves to be around people. She always loves to help anyone when they are in need of something. Though at times Anne may argue with her mother about helping her do house work Anne really has a soft heart. The one thing that I found very touching was that Anne stayed by her sister Margot’s side the whole time she was ill until she passed away. Now

    During the beginning of her diary entry, she acts as if she’s still living a typical school life. In paragraph 4, she writes “Thank goodness summer vacation is almost here; one more week and our torment will be over.” This shows how she’s still focusing on the little things in her life that made her happy. Another diary entry, Anne describes her new residence- the Annex. Paragraph 19, “Thanks to Father and to a brush and a pot of glue, I was able to plaster the wall with pictures.” This shows how, despite being in the midst of hiding, she still looks to the bright side of…

    Anne Frank is someone who influenced history long after she was gone, because of her courage, bravery, and willpower that got here and her family through the tough times up until they were seized. Though Anne died at age fifteen in one of the camps, we still see her today as such an accepting human being throughout her life. In one of her very last entries Anne stated, “In spite of everything, I still believe that people are really good at heart.” This entry proves her beliefs beyond measure that all humans are good people and mean for the best in their own lives. This statement alone expresses everything people need to know about Anne and who she was as a person this shows a maturity level way beyond her years as a young girl of only thirteen…

    Anne was born on June 12, 1929, in Frankfurt, Germany, and she was just a teenager when Nazis began to torture the Jewish people. During the camp life, she kept writing down a journal about her and others’ life. Anne’s older sister’s name was Margot, and both of them were not a good match for being friends, although they were siblings, because Margot was jealous of Anne.

Anne died when she was a teenager at the camp because she was not keeping a hope like her father. Hope is the only elements to make a person, who has it, reach his/her goal in life.…

    Anne Frank is often misunderstood by many people throughout the story and considers herself as having no “true” friends. In order to feel that void she humanizes her diary, “Kitty,” to store her deepest thoughts when others would not understand or care to listen. Shortly after receiving the diary for her thirteenth birthday, Anne states, “Paper has more patience than people,” (pg.6) confirming her thoughts about the people surrounding her. However, the statement could never have been truer for Anne until after entering the Secret Annex.…

    She is young and has not experienced life to the fullest so, she is very hopeful for future events. In the text Anne states, “Monday, the ninth of November, 1942. Wonderful news! The Allies have landed in Africa. Pim says that we can look for an early finish to the war. Just for fun he asked each of us what was the first thing we wanted to do when we got out of here. For myself, there are so many things... to ride a bike again... to laugh till my belly aches... to have new clothes from the skin out... to have a hot tub filled to overflowing and wallow in it for hours... to be back in school with my friends.” This proves that Anne was very hopeful for a good outcome. Anne was very courageous. She never chose to give up when everyone around her felt like their lives were going to end, instead she kept her head high and stayed positive.

    Annelies Marie Frank (12 June 1929 - February or March 1945) was born in Frankfurt, Germany. She moved to Amsterdam when she was four and a half years old because of the Nazi party’s control over Germany.

    She has learned that through hard times she can still find the happiness in life and can focus on them. Anne did not just make it through challenging times, she thrived through challenging times. We all should notice that no matter what was going on, Anne was seeing the joy and good in not only life, but in people as well. She showed us who she really was through this life changing experience. Anne demonstrates that we should keep our head held high when we face the struggles of life. If Anne Frank can see the good in things while being persecuted, I know I can. I have learned from the Holocaust that no matter who you are, what you look like, your race, religion, or anything you can think of, we are equal. Now you are probably thinking, “shouldn’t she already know that?” The Holocaust has helped me to see it in a different way. It also showed me how cruel and selfish humans can be and how cruel and selfish I can be. A lesson all humans should know is that we are one. We are equal. Anne once said, “‘I don’t think of all the misery, but the beauty that still remains,’”…

    Anne Frank Diary

    As a teenage girl, Anne loves to indulge in childish pleasures such as running around and having fun, or embarking on great journeys through her imagination. After Miep Gies, the Frank's trusted and loyal friend, told Anne that she was going to a party later that night, Anne's childish happiness had gotten the best of her, and she exploded into a storm of questions. "How heavenly!" she had said. "Remember exactly what everyone was wearing, and what you eat, and everything so you can tell us tomorrow!" In this quote alone an inside glimpse of Anne's young personality was exposed to the audience to see how she reacts in particular situations. However, this also goes to show the liveliness that in often cases, Anne keeps pent up inside. Her perspective of situations varies so greatly from average adults that her spontaneity to certain remarks is not only refreshing, but allows her to see the better in situations and people, just as she had stated in her quote. Moreover, Anne has been encased in a loving, protective shell built by her family. She had not been exposed to the harshness of others and still is often treated as a child. Due to this, Anne has not openly seen the world as a whole picture, but only as a small fraction. Under these conditions, even after having to be locked away for…
