The Nazis were gaining power, which caused lots of problems and hate towards Jewish people. Anne's parents, Otto and Edith Frank, moved to the Netherlands, where Otto started a trading business. However, in May 1940, the Nazis took over the Netherlands, making life harder for Jewish people like Anne. The Nazis made unfair laws that took away the rights of Jewish people, like their access to public spaces and education. The situation worsened when Anne's older sister, Margot, got a letter telling her to work for the Nazis in Germany. In July 1942, the Frank family had to hide in a Secret Annex behind Otto's business on Prinsengracht 263. Anne, her family, and four others, lived in a tiny space, constantly scared that the Nazis would find them. For Anne's thirteenth birthday, she got a diary. She described her diary as a red and white plain diary which she named "Kitty". With this diary, she filled its pages with her thoughts, emotions, and feelings while hiding from the Nazis. Anne found comfort in writing in her diary, from not just jotting down her fears and dreams, but believing in the power of her words to overcome her

Anne Frank was my age, 15, when she was murdered by Nazis during World War II. I can’t even fathom what she must have gone through in the months before her death. Through her diary, one can understand the hardships of the Jewish people in Nazi Germany occupied countries
Anne Frank was a 13-year-old Jewish girl who was thrown into one of the worst periods in the history of the world; the Holocaust. Though she went through awful things that many people will never experience, she always kept the faith that there was still some good in everyone. She once said, “Despite everything I still believe people are truly good at heart.” Her diary, which she kept while her family was in hiding from the Nazis, shows the triumph of her spirit over the evil in the world even through the pain of adolescence. The Franks and Van Dans were hiding and they suffered many hardships, mentally and physically. Many people in Anne’s situation would have become bitter and resentful, but Anne never would despair.
History was made on January 30, 1933 when an appalling and repulsive act took place. Annelies Marie Frank was just a young girl when the holocaust began. Anne Frank was born on June 12, 1929. She is from Frankfort Germany where she spoke Dutch, attended a Montessori school, and lived with her parents and only sibling. She also had a tremendous talent of writing at just the young age of 13. The holocaust was an event set up and held by a man named Adolf Hitler. He and his men killed anyone who wasn’t his definition of a perfect German. Since the Frank family was Jewish and German, they quickly went into hiding. During this time, Anne wrote and kept day by day journal entrees in her diary. 2 years later they were found and sent to different areas
Anne Frank and her family lived in Germany during the time following World War I. When the Nazi party came to power in Germany, the Frank’s were forced to flee Germany, and they moved to the Netherlands. Shortly after they moved, the Nazi’s invaded the Netherlands. In order the save their lives, the Franks went into hiding when Anne was at the age of 13. They hid in a “Secret Annex” located in the building where Mr. Frank used to run his business.

Because food was being rationed during the war, the Franks, and those that were hiding with them, had to survive on only two ration books. Anne used to pass the time by writing in her diary. It was one of the only ways that she managed to survive and stay sane. She found comfort the words of her diary, and she wanted it to be saved so it could be published after the war.

Anne Frank is a symbol of hope to many people around the world, but I do believe that she is a hero. A hero is someone who does something big to help the greater good. They do something not only impactful, but live like a hero by having a good attitude and having the motivation to do good. A hero is someone who is one without realizing it. Anne Frank wrote about what she thought was right, and she was able to be her own hero even though she didn’t realize it.
Sina Salemian Salemian 1 HS English 2;Period 3 Ms.Matthews January 10, 2014 Anne Frank During The Holocaust Anne Frank is a strong young girl that lived during the Holocaust in Amsterdam, Germany. She lived in a very bad time during the Holocaust, where she either had to hide or go to a concentration camp. Anne Frank is a normal girl that should be going to school and not be in hiding from the Nazis and should not have to take the sacrifices of having no friends, no ability to be free and to express her religion. I consider Anne a hero because of all the dedication to staying free and not having to be under a dictatorship.
With the earliest recordings coming from the Fifth Century B.C., streptococcus pyogenes, and more frequently, its symptoms have been prevalent among doctors and historians for hundreds of years. The first mentioning of streptococcus pyogenes is to be credited to Hippocrates, in which he describes the relative symptoms of the flesh-eating bacteria in its early stages. Then depicted by Billroth in 1874, patients carrying erysipelas were determined to have this certain bacterial infection. In 1883, the chain-forming bacteria were isolated by Fehleisen; and in the following year, Rosenbach applied the S. pyogenes name. Further advances in hemolytic and non-hemolytic studies were made by Lancefield in the 1930’s, in which the alpha, beta, and gamma subgroups of the hemolytic structures – detailed and defined by Schottmueller and Brown - were divided into serotypes.

The Holocaust was a time of sadness for many people. However, one story that took place during the Holocaust was truly inspiring and impacted the lives of many people around the world. This was the story of Anne Frank and her family. Anne Frank was one of over one million Jews who died in the Holocaust (Anne Frank 1). In September 1939, when World War II began, more than one and a half million Jews lived in countries occupied, or soon to be occupied by Hitler (Lee 1). Because of this many families were forced into concentration camps due to Hitler during this time. However, Anne’s family decided to try and avoid the brutal camps by going into hiding in the secret annex. Anne Frank and her family are famously known for Anne’s diary that was found by Miep Gies in the secret annex (Anne Frank 1). Not long after the diary was found, Anne’s story was known all around the world. Anne Frank impacted the lives of many by showing people an insight of what life was really like for Jews under Hitler’s control and being someone who people can look up to. Therefore, Anne Frank impacted the lives of many people around the world and has become a “famous symbol for the lost promise of the children who died in the Holocaust” (Anne Frank 1).
The name “Anne Frank” is synonymous with hope, optimism, and belief in human good, even in times of relentless evil. Although she only lived to be fifteen, Anne is known and respected throughout the world for the humanistic light her work shed on an infamous time. Born June 12th, 1929, in Germany, she spent her early years in a middle-class Jewish-German family. However, the tranquility of the Frank family and 522,000 other German-Jews’ lives would be shattered by one of the most nefarious events in history, the Holocaust. Anne’s diary has become an influential resource in understanding historical and emotional aspects of the Holocaust.
Anne Frank was a German-Jewish diarist. She was known for the diary she wrote while hiding from anti-Jewish persecution in Amsterdam during World War II. Her diary describes with wisdom and humor the two difficult years she spent in seclusion before her tragic death at the age of 15. Since it was first published in 1947, her diary has appeared in more than 50 languages. Perhaps more than any other figure, Anne Frank gave a human face to the victims of the Holocaust.
On June 12, 1929, at 7:30 AM, a baby girl was born in Frankfort, Germany. No one realized that this infant, who was Jewish, was destined to become one of the worlds most famous victims of World War II. Her name was Anne Frank. Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl, by Anne Frank and B.M. Mooyaart, was actually the real diary of Anne Frank. Anne was a girl who lived with her family during the time while the Nazis took power over Germany. Because they were Jewish, Otto, Edith, Margot, and Anne Frank immigrated to Holland in 1933. Hitler invaded Holland on May 10, 1940, a month before Anne?s eleventh birthday. In July 1942, Anne's family went into hiding in the Prinsengracht building. Anne and her family called it the 'Secret Annex'. Life there was not easy at all. They had to wake up at 6:45 every morning. Nobody could go outside, nor turn on lights at night. Anne mostly spent her time reading books, writing stories, and of course, making daily entries in her diary. She only kept her diary while hiding from the Nazis. This diary told the story of the excitement and horror in this young girl's life during the Holocaust. Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl reveals the life of a young innocent girl who is forced into hiding from the Nazis because of her religion, Judaism. This book is very informing and enlightening. It introduces a time period of discrimination, unfair judgment, and power-crazed individuals, and with this, it shows the effect on the defenseless.
I. Introduction The autobiography book, “The Diary of a Young Girl”, is a collection of Dutch diary entries authored by Anne Frank, a 13-year-old Jewish girl who lived through the atrocities of the Anti-Semitist German Nazi Regime. Beginning on June 14, 1942, the diary, which Anne named “Kitty”, vividly depicts fear-filled stories of the Franks and other Jews in evading racial annihilation. Besides the stories of war, the world-renowned personal account narrates a teenage girl’s blossoming and her search for identity, love, and acceptance. The entries end abruptly on August 1, 1944, signifying the Gestapo’s capture of the Frank family and all the other residents of the Secret Annexe, but despite the impermanence of Anne’s life, her legacy endures in her 70-year-old memoir which immortalizes the horrors of the humanity-crushing war and violence in the minds of mankind and how it was perceived through the eyes of the juveniles.
