"From the Diary of Anne Frank", which is based on the foundation of
War II. It is a self-depiction (auto-biography) of a girl Anne Frank, who
communicates her thoughts in a diary. Her father had presented a diary on the
celebration of her thirteenth birthday, which she called 'kitty' as her best friend.
Anne Frank was a Jewish young girl who is hiding during war II, in order to
keep away from the Nazis. She shares her experience and therefore the story
during her discouraging season. Likewise, she along with seven others who hide in a secret annex on Prinsengrach 263 in
Amsterdam. She lives there for 2 years and reflects each of her experiences
inside the diary. As a result, she uses her energy in studying and composing,
gaining more knowledge about government issues (politics) and literature. After
her demise (death), she becomes world famous due to her diary
----------Detailed Explanation----------
The author feels that it is strange
and unusual for her to record a diary as she is doing it for the first time. He
feels that inside the future no one will analyze the previous encounters of the
young writer.
But she gets these thoughts
out of her mind and thinks about her thinking. She realizes in light of the
fact that she has no partner (friend) to talk to her. She needs to give a shape
to the partner's need, so she chooses to call the diary as "kitty".
Anne feels that the paper has more ability to hold its own views rather than
individuals who have low patience. She has a great time with friends, yet
cannot share her all secrets because they are not real companions .. She recalls
her father Mr. Otto Frank who presents her the most beloved diary on the
celebration of her thirteenth birthday.
Arriving on June 20, 1942,
she writes in her diary how her class is concerned about their results. She
says that the main subject in which she
has doubt is mathematics. He and his classmate, "G", try to stop the
students from making noise, yet it is in vain.
Anne remembers how the
teacher of mathematics is constantly disturbed by her habit of talking too much.
He gives her extra homework as punishment while talking in his class. The first
sentence is the composition of an essay on "Chatterbox", which she
considers strange. Explains the topic and chooses to write in favor of talking.
But she cannot write fully. She writes that she will try to improve herself,
but cannot completely stop talking. The teacher thinks that its entertaining
however he gives another topic after she didn't change her nature of talking in
the class.
The topic is "
Chatterbox" which presents to a habit that is difficult to change.. After
examine her, Maths teacher gives her another topic, Quack, Quack, Quack, Said
