Anne's diary was a gift for her 13th birthday on June 12, 1942.

Thereafter, Ana appoints Kitty diary and confides everything happens. The day starts when Ana is still in school there has admirers and friends as Joep and Lies. During that time, the Jews had to use a star on clothes to be identified, should make purchases in stores and businesses Jews had no right to use the tram or use bicycles, children should study in special schools and had no rights as the rest of the population. Soon after, Ana receives the news that should be hidden, as the Gestapo has cited her sister Margot and her father. The target date for the disappearance of the Frank family was on July 16, leaving a note camouflage with an address in Maastricht. However, the July 5, 1942 early fleeing the hideout, dressed in several layers of clothes and a suitcase per person. They are helped by Miep, a girl who worked in the store and knew the family, Mr. Koophuis, Eli and Vossen. As family history, Margot was born in 1926 in Frankfurt and Ana on June 12, 1929. Immigrated to Holland in 1933 where his father was appointed director of Travies N. V., signature associated Kolen & Co. of Amsterdam, the same building housed the two companies of which his father was a shareholder and subsequently served as its annex hideaway for the family. That was kind of hiding small two-story apartment at the top of the house. To cover the door to the annex placed a revolving bookcase. Rules to live there were very strict, because they had to keep silent when workers were in the office, could not flush the toilet or water faucets open until they were alone in the building, the procedure was bathing in a tub to be used alternately for areas that everyone chose. Along with the Frank family, consisting of Mrs. and Mr. Frank, Margot and Anne, came to live in the Van Daan: Mr. and Mrs. Van Daan and their son Peter. Ana has bad relationship with Mrs. Van Daan, who aims to educate as well as with Peter, whom he considers lazy and apathetic, as he is very quiet. Mr. Koophuis supplies of books and food to families every 15 days. The first few months are difficult for Anne; it has a bad relationship with his mother, Margot and Mrs. Van Daan with. Anne often feels sad when her mother scolds who considers tough, sarcastic and disorderly. Externalized who loves his father more than anyone in the family and it expects approval. During this first stage, Anne's father became ill with high fever eczema, which represent a serious problem, as they could

not go to doctors and get all the necessary medicines fortunately recovered after a couple of weeks. Ana spends his time studying shorthand and French and has read many books. On 9 November 1942 the British announced that Algeria, Morocco, Casablanca and Oran have fallen and now await the turn of Tunisia. Continues defending Stalingrad. All in Annex hope this is the beginning of the end. Shortly after was the 17th birthday of Peter and a new tenant joined the Annex, Albert Dussel, who was a dentist and whose wife is sheltered abroad. When arrived at Annex Dussel, gave a regulation of coexistence and installed it in Anna's room this tells the life abroad, the constant hunt for Jews, the seizure of their property and abuse against them. Anne celebrates Hanukkah and the Feast of St. Nicholas, Miep and Elli will bring gifts. Sometimes Ana is deeply troubled, because he misses his life abroad, his friends, is tired of the constant nagging and criticism, contempt with which they look at because it is considered the scapegoat and to Dussel morning exercises in shared room, however, maintains good face. Ana calls this period tomb days: period forced to live hidden in the hope that it will not be for long. It also describes the misery of war: Dutch Christian children compulsorily sent to Germany; separate Jewish families; war around the globe, children without adequate clothing asking for a piece of bread in the streets; Jews and Christians expect the whole world expects, many expect death. On February 27, 1943 Chruchill recovering from pneumonia, Gandhi went back into hunger strike and the owner of the building where families were staying underground is just to sell without notifying them or Kraler Koophuis. The new owner took one look at the building in the company of an architect and Koophuis warned that it had the key to the annex, for one, were safe. In March 1943 bombings were heard, guns and alarms on the street. Everyone was very afraid, but the evils that were waiting outside were worse than being hit by a bomb. Ana thought that Turkey would enter the English war allied, but this was not so. The Fuhrer shows pride in their broadcasts and war-wounded soldiers. Earlier this month, someone entered the home around 8 pm. All were terrified to hear the knock on the door of the annex. Mr. Van Daan was coughing a lot because I had flu, so I supplied codeine to keep silence. They thought they were thieves. Then the noise stopped and fell in the morning to see if everything was in order. It was announced that all

Jews must leave the Germanic countries before 18 July. Utrecht will be refined and lead people to the slaughter like a herd of animals sick and dirty. Annex discovered where rats were preserved so Mouschi left, Peter's cat, to handle the matter. In April 1943 Koophuis had a strong internal bleeding and had to be away for three weeks. Elli Vossen contracted flu and also appears to have ulceration. In the annex there are many disputes. Ana's mother against her, against Van Daan's father and Ms. Ana. Mrs. Van Daan against Frank. Food is bad: stale bread, spinach and potatoes for 15 days. In May 1943, Ana describes the clothes of tenants is much worn but that comparison of the Jewish prisoners, living in paradise. There have been many bombings, all of Holland is punished for his numerous strikes and are under siege. Young Dutch are required to sign to agree to the new regime; however, 80% of them do not accept and will now be sent to work in Nazi land. In June 1943 Ana celebrates his 14th birthday; his father wrote a poem in which he expressed his understanding for the load that she gets to be judged by all to be the smallest. Ana is honored with gifts that make since involved a series of sacrifices to give candy and a book of mythology. Mr. Vossen was diagnosed with cancer; this meant that one of his protectors would be absent. The authorities have been asked to surrender their radios but Koophuis Baby bought one on the black market and it will be hidden in the Annex: Jewish underground with clandestine radio, bought on the black market in illegal money. Ana is having problems with his eyes and thinks about the possibility of going to the doctor with Miep, however this option is discarded. Anne and Margot Miep greatly help with office work and have been learning shorthand. Dussel and Anne vying for the study table, because he does not want to transfer her and Anna, with great character, ends up winning his table at certain times. In July 1943 the north of Amsterdam was destroyed, the hospitals were full and there was a balance of more than 200 people dead and many injured. Children looking for their parents in the ashes of the rubble. The shelling intensified in Holland, but leave following alarms is worse or equal to the bombings. There is one glimmer of hope: Mussolini gave his resignation to the king of Italy. In the house there was, again, another assault. They took 40 guilders and sugar supply. Koophuis believe the same robbers were six weeks ago. Everyone thought about

what I would do if they were free: Margot and Mr. Van Daan is'd put a hot water bath for 30 minutes. Mrs. Van Daan eat sweets; Dussel just think Lotte, his wife Ana's mother would take a cup of coffee, Mr. Frank would visit Mr. Vossen to the hospital, Peter would go to the movies and Ana would be so happy I would not know where to start, just wants to go home and school. Ana Annex describes activities: whenever there are bombings, Ana runs into the parents' room. Everything that happens in Annex heard when Dussel can not sleep, when Van Daan are quarreling, when someone goes to the toilet. At 12:30 the clerks of the house to eat. At 12:45 Koophuis, Kraler, Van Santen, Elli and Miep up the annex to spend time with his proteges. At 1:00 gather around the radio to listen to the BBC. At 1:15 they sit down to eat. At 1:45 lunch is over and everyone returns to work. Ana studied until 4:00, taking advantage of the silence of the nap of all. At 5:30 the store clerks are removed and thereafter may use the toilet, making noises, etc.. At 8:30 o'clock in the morning is important to remain silent and not use the toilet to avoid detection. At 9:00 eat breakfast and during the day, study or read. In September 1943, heard on the radio that Italy had capitulated. Furthermore, Koophuis was admitted for intestinal surgery for 4 weeks. Miep and Elli contracted flu was on the verge of a nervous breakdown because I had to cover the work of Koophuis and Miep and make orders Annex. Things in the Annex are going from bad to worse, the mood is depressed because everyone is apprehensive about the insurmountable obstacle of winter. The Van Daan is running out of funds. Mrs. Van Daan would have to sell her fur coat to survive. Margot suffers from headaches, insomnia and Ana Dussel feels he is being an idiot, do not eat, has a face and feels suffocated and depressed. It wants to have fun, go out and be happy. He feels it is a bird that has lost its wings. One such V. M. Annex suspicion. Kraler rose stealthily to avoid being discovered by V. M. and reported the suspicion to be extreme precautions. Ana had a vision of seeing his gaunt and ragged Lies friend for help. Ana feels guilty for not being able to help and asks God to protect her. Considers that Lies is the symbol of misfortune that is going through the thousands of Jews, simply because they were Jews. The news on the radio is drowsiness atmosphere. During December, the day of Saint Nicholas, trying to cheer in the Annex. Elli, Miep and Koophuis made them gifts, a

Christmas cake with the inscription "Peace 1944". Meanwhile, Frank and Van Daan and can not stand, it is difficult to cohabit. The Franks have given their food to the Van Daan but they are greedy and selfish. The monotony begins to upset them. They got fake providers ration cards and food they have to eat is bad, based on cabbage and potatoes. Ana reviews are becoming more mature, with greater vision, insight and wisdom. Analyze your life until 1944, saw through a magnifier ruthless. First, sun drenched home, then in the Annex since 1942, the abrupt change, disputes, reprimands, etc... She was taken by surprise, as if he had received a blow, and to comfort himself, became insolent. The first part of 1943: crisis of tears, infinite solitude, slowly understanding its flaws. He was alone with the difficult task of change itself, to continue provoking reproaches were not depressed. The second part of the year was a little better, became young, and the elderly began to regard rather as one of them. He began to think, to write stories. After New Year, was their desire to have a boy friend, not a girl? There was also the discovery of his happiness, under its shell made of superficiality and joy. He no longer thought in misery, but the beauty that will survive.
