Anne Frank's Diary - Sonia

Non-Fiction Book Report

     I have been reading the diary of Anne Frank. The conflict in the book is basically the war, and the fact that Anne and her family, as well as another family and one other man, have to go into hiding because they are Jews. Although this is the main conflict in this book, there are several minor conflicts that happen while in hiding like the people there not getting along and arguments rising, things along those lines. Some obstacles to solving the problem that the people in hiding are not getting along too well are that they all have different personalities, have been brought up differently, or have different hobbies and pleasures from each other. Therefore, conflicts come and go in the Secret Annex, and certain people dislike each other from previous arguments. Above all, Anne is the one that gets teased and picked at, criticized by everyone hiding in the Annex. However, her father jumps to her side a lot of the times, and he defends her against all the rude comments and remarks thrown at her.

  1. This seems to be a very interesting book, I have not read it yet and now I intend to. However could you maybe elaborate? For example is say that the main conflict is a war but you don't tell which war it is. Is it world war 1, world war 2 etc... Also, many other blog posts mention the "Secret Annex" It may be helpful to readers if you were to define an annex, and possibly where it is located. Finally, it would be nice if you told us why she was teased, and criticized. We feel sympathy for her but we do not know whether she deserves to be criticized and teased or whether she is simply the victim of bullying.
