Anne Frank

     So far in my novel Anne Frank, Anne is to stay in the attic along with her family for she is a jew.  Every non German person must be moved out/executed. In this diary any explains her feelings and thoughts about the holocaust going on and how it has affected her. Anne feels frightened, every time their is a noise downstairs she thinks it's the end for her and her family. She doesn't get along with her mother and is very close with her father.  She thinks of how grateful she is to be safe for now and looks for the best in her future.

     In the book the main character is Anne.  She is a shy, obedient and intelligent. Before she had to hide from the Nazis she was a shy girl but everyone wanted to be her friend and liked her. She never disobeyed her parents and always followed what they said. While she is hiding she puts her free time to use by learning new things. She learns how to read in a different language studies math even if she doesn't like it.

   In the Book Anne Frank always tells us how she and her mom don't get along with one another. They have different opinions and think of each other differently. Anne always explains how her mother always talks and looks at Margot way differently than she does at her. I think that this is happening because she doesn't know who to talk to about her misunderstandings with her mother. All she wants is to have a good relationship with her put they don't get along very well and she feels sad. This shows an Again and Again moment, because she always tells us how she feels about her mother not really paying attention or giving her any complements and watching her look at Margot a whole different way.

Holocaust Blog

     In my opinion I think that many people stood by and watched the Holocaust take place because they were afraid. Afraid of what could happen to them if they intervened. Some stood up and resisted the Natzi's  because they knew that either way they would get killed and because it was just wrong. If I was in that case I would probably stand by because I would be protecting my self and family if I followed the rules. Any rebels were executed In the passage Jewish resistance it said that "The German and their auxiliaries killed most of the rebels."  In conclusion no matter how much I would want to help someone in need I wouldn't to protect my family and myself.
