The Diary of Anne Frank is about a brave little girl who tells her story of struggle and courage through her diary. On Anne’s 13th birthday she received various presents, but the present that she cherished the most was her diary that she named “Kitty”. The Diary of Anne Frank, captures Anne’s feelings, emotions, thoughts, and events that surrounded her. On May 10, 1940 the German Army invaded the Netherlands, where Anne and her family lived.
