She wrote in her diary about her feeling and observations about the holocaust and about how she went into hiding for years. Anne Frank didn't really have a connection with any of her family members except her dad so her diary was pretty much her best friend.

At the start of the diary Anne describes fairly typical girlhood experiences, writing about her friendships with other girls, crushes on boys, and her academics performances at school.

Beginning: The diary began on june12 1942. In the diary , it describes Anne's everyday life, like her friendships and girlhood experiences. Anti-Semitic laws forced Jews into separate schools To escape persecution , the Frank's moved to the Netherlands. The Frank's were then forced into hiding. They moved into a small annex office above Otto's Frank's office. To pay close attention to the war they listened to the radio. Amsterdam is devastated by the war during hiding.
Middle: Anne often wrote about her feelings of isolation and loneliness. she has a tumultuous relationship with the adults in the annex, particularly her mother, who she considers lacking in attention and love. She adores her father, but is frequently scolded by Mr. and Mrs. van Daan and Mr. Dussel. Mr. Frank does not approve of her friendship with Peter van Daan. Though she considers herself to be a German citizen, her citizenship is revoked. Dutch have turned against the Jews.
End: Ann deals with confinement and deprivation during the two years of being in hiding. Her diary describes a fight to define herself within the brutal circumstances of the holocaust. The Frank family is arrested on august 4th 1944. Anne's diary then comes to an end when she dies at age fifteen from Typhus. The only surviver from the holocaust is her father Otto Frank. He recovers Anne's diary ant then published it. The diary helped people see the holocaust from a young persons perspective.
- Problem: The Frank's had to move from their home in Germany to the Netherlands for hiding. When they moved from Germany Anne left behind all of her friends and her cat, Moortje.
