ANNE FRANK 

# I know very few of you know about Anne Frank, so for that reason, I want to tell you something interesting about her. 

# Anne was a Jewish girl, you all might know that the great dictator Hitler gave the order to kill all Jewish people.

# So now let's come and find out how Anne survives or not?

                                                        Let's go:

• Annelies Marie Frank was born in Germany on 12th June 1929, to Otto and Edith Frank. She had one sister, Margot. Her father had served as an officer in the German army in World War I.

• Anne enjoyed a normal, happy childhood.

• When Hitler came to power in 1933, the persecution of the Jews began in earnest, and the Frank family moved to Amsterdam, where they hoped to be safe.

• When the Nazis invaded the Netherlands in 1940, the levels of persecution intensified, and from May 1942, the Jewish were required to wear the yellow star of David to set them apart from non-Jewish.

• Anne received her diary for her 13th birthday in 1942. Her diary had a nickname: Kitty. The first diary entry was on 14th June 1942.

• On July 6th, 1942, the Frank family went into hiding.  Visitors to the Anne Frank museum can see the bookcase that concealed their hiding place.

• On August 4th, 1944, the family's hiding place was discovered. They were arrested and sent to the Auschwitz death camp in Poland.

• In October 1944, Anne and her sister Margot were moved to the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp in Germany.

• Anne's diary was published, in Dutch, in 1947, by her father Otto, the only member of the Frank family to survive the war.

How did Anne Frank die?

Anne died of typhoid at Bergen-Belsen in February or March 1945, tragically, just weeks before British forces liberated the camp on 15th April 1945.

Friends, I recommend you to read her diary:
