Anne Frank

How would you like it if you and everyone of your religion were forced to play the mouse that eats the cheese in the mouse-trap? That’s what Anne Frank and thousands of others had to try and avoid in World War ll. This was because of a German ruler named Hitler, who thought Jews did not fit in as his image of the ‘perfect’ German.

Anne Frank was one of these Jews. For the first 5 care-free years of Anne Frank’s life, she lived with her caring parents (Otto and Edith) and her sister Margot. They lived in an apartment on the outskirts of a small town named Frankfurt.

But it was in the time of 1933, the time when the Nazi’s seized power. That was when Anne Frank’s life changed completely. Her father Otto fled to Amsterdam in the Netherlands, where he had business connections. The rest of the family soon followed and Anne was to the last to arrive after living with her grandparents. When they were in the Netherlands, they hid in an attic with four other Jews, four two years.

While Anne was hiding, she kept a diary which meant absolutely everything to her. Unfortunately after two years, they were found, and sent to a concentration camp where Anne died of Typhus. Anne Frank’s diary was famous and you can still find it in a bookshop. Anne Frank was known for her courage to speak her mind (in her) and have fun while hiding from the greatest threat of all time.
