Anne Frank: The diary of a young girl.


The diary defines the strong and independent character of young girl, Anne. The victim of world war II, hiding in the Dutch province along with 7 others (family and friends).

The diary is being dated from June 1942 to August 1944, in this course of time we witness the growth of Anne both physically and emotionally. The book also shows the war through a teenager’s point of view. Although the book depicts the incidents of the war and the facts as well but the book mainly revolves around Anne’s life.

Like every other young adult, she had her own problems to deal with, say her unfulfilled expectations from her mother or ignorance from father or dealing with comments made by the other extended family etc.

The diary also describes the snags of living in hiding, not enough food supplies and sanitation problems etc. There were times when she would give up, but again manage to put herself together, smile at the problems and go on.

In spite of all the adverse situations Anne still inspires us with her different approach towards life, way ahead of her time.
