Anne Frank :The Diary of a Young Girl

Summary:
Now that I've finished that book "Anne Frank", I would like to share the part when the families celebrated Hanukkah. Anne and the rest of her family and the Van Daans they did the same tradition but, since they didn't have much they did some things different. For example, they lit a candle for about 10 minutes. When Anne was in the attic she saw terrible things going on around her. For example, at night, she saw Jews been taking away from their houses. I don't want to give away the ending but, Anne Frank and her family have a unexpected ending.



Genre
The Diary of Anne Frank is a auto-biography book. I now what you are think this isn't an auto-biography book because Anne is writing about her self but not about her life story. In my belief I think the genre is Auto biography because she is telling wants happing in life so far.  Anne frank is non-fiction. Every thing she says is true. People might say that the diary of Anne Frank a is a children literature but, it can be.

Anne Frank Diary

Summary
So far in my book "Anne Frank the Diary of a Young Girl", its about a 13 year old Jewish girl Anne Frank and her life in a diary. She is living in a time when hitler took over. When Hitler took over Jews like Anne Frank have to wear a star (representing that they are Jews),  they couldn't ride trains, drive cars, and Jews had a corfu etc. Anne and her family are going to a secret annexe that is a attic that is safe. Anne and her family are having a hard time living there because they can't make nosies, and they have to share the attic with another family. A family that took them in the Koophuis family have been helping them a lot starting with hiding them, they also bring them food.

POV
The point of view my book "Anne Frank the Diary of a young girl", is first person. I think its first person because the author is always starting her sentences with I, me, and mine. You also get to hear her thoughts and see what is happing through her eyes. For example "In 934 I went to a school  the Montessori Kindergarten". I also think it is in first person because its her journal. I know its a journal because the way she writes her paragraphs and how she dates her paragraphs.

Holocaust

This pass month I've been learning about the holocaust and reading about some by-standers and up-standers. By-stander is when a person who is present at an event or incident but does not take part. On the other hand, an up-stander is a person who is present at an event or incident and takes action. So, in class we have been talking about how Hitler slowly brainwashed Germans to go against the Jews and how the actions that he did got worst for the Jews and talking about why people didn't stood up. I think that people became a by-stander because they saw the problem not that bad and they would do something once it got worse. Then when the situation got worse they were to scared to that they would have some consequences their self’s. I read about some up-stander who stood up. For example, Schindler, he uses his money to buy Jews and save them. If I was in this situation I probably be a by-stander because I would be scared if they caught me and possibly kill me and my family.
