Imagine what life was like during the Holocaust. Having to hide from the Green Police and not living a normal lifestyle. This is what the Franks and the Van Daans had to do. In the Diary of Anne Frank, they had to live in a little attic above an office building that was formerly owned by Otto Frank. This little attic had to hold eight people. The Frank family had two daughters, Margot and Anne. The Van Daans had a son named Peter. Margot and Peter were very similar in many ways, whereas Anne and Peter were similar in some ways and different in many. Anne Frank was a very bright teenage girl. She went to a Jewish secondary school where she got good grades and had lots of friends. For example Peter said, “You were always in the middle of a

The year is 1942. They are hiding for their lives; struggling to survive. In “The Diary of Anne Frank”, written by Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett, There is a group of people in the annex that are in hiding because the Nazis are targeting Jews. The Franks, Van Daans and a dentist named Mr. Dussel are the people hiding in the annex and they are the Jews in hiding, they are forced to make hard choices that will determine their future and they are trying to stay hidden from the Nazis so they can survive the Holocaust. The Holocaust is the Nazis and Adolf Hitler killing and capturing anyone and everyone that doesn't agree with them.
Mr. and Mrs. van Daan and their son Peter (who is a few years older than Anne) are also in hiding with the Franks. Anne’s adolescence is spent hidden from the outside world. She’s cooped up in tiny rooms, tiptoeing around during the day. After almost 2 years in hiding they are discovered and deported to concentration camps. Anne’s father, Otto Frank, is the only one of the eight people to survive. After her death Anne becomes world famous because of the diary she wrote while in hiding. Miep Gies is a Dutch woman who assists the annex residents with food, clothing, books, and companionship. She cheerfully assists them with the things they need and pitches in to give them holidays. Along with Elli, she retrieves and saves Anne's diary from the floor after the annex residents are arrested (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miep_Gies). Miep Gies and her husband took action and helped their Jewish friends. This situation affected their daily lives in many different ways. The fact that Miep and her husband helped the Jews, knowing that they
Have you ever wondered if Peter Vann Daan and Anne Frank are alike? There are many ways that they are the same and different. Their personalities, the way they act, and their feeling towards things are what make them unique.
In the Diary of Anne Frank, the two characters I chose to compare and contrast are Mrs. Frank and Mrs. Van Daan. These two ladies are similar and different in many ways. They are both middle aged women that live in Amsterdam. When the Holocaust began in 1939, Mrs. Frank and Mrs. Van Daan moved into the secret Annex with their families.
During the Holocaust over 6 million Jews were killed in Europe. A lot of them were taken to concentration camps across Europe and forced to work. If they were not fit for labor they were executed at the camps with no chance for survival. While all of this was going on in the outside world, the Franks and the Van Daan's were living in a “Secret Annex” behind Otto Frank's old office building. There were a total of eight people, they are the following: Anne Frank, Margot Frank, Otto Frank, Edith Frank, Peter Van Daan, Hans Van Daan, and Petronilla Van Daan, and Mr. Dussel. They lived a quiet and small, but safe life.
After seeing the film and reading the text I learned a lot of information on what a Jews life in hiding was like. Both impacted me deeply but seeing the film was more impactful for me. In the film you could see what their living situation was like so you could get a better understanding of what being in hiding was like, it might not have been a exact replica of what it really was like but you still got a good idea of it. Also you could see the characters feelings and emotions. This helped the viewers know what they were feeling in a certain moment in time. So while both were very interesting I was more in favor of the Film over the Text, it add more elements to the story for me.

When the government of Holland was overthrown by Germany, Jews had to register for concentration camps. Instead of doing that, a former German officer named Otto Frank took his family into hiding in a strategic warehouse with another family. This family was the Van Pels.
