Response: I think Anne Frank is a very interesting young girl to learn about. Her writings seem of someone possibly of an older age. She explains things well and I can picture alot of the things in my mind because of how well she writes. Although it it a very sad story I must say I like it because of how interesting it is and I would like to learn about Anne Frank more. |

Response: How many of us would be able to keep our spirit so pure and still belive in peace and humanity while living in a nightmare? Anne's diary is so beautiful and tragicaly human. I hope that her imature death was a door to a place of peace and light where her soul found it's freedom. |

Response: Anne Frank's article, "Give!" is so touching. I believe she was a very brave young girl who looked not only on the rough outer surface of deep things. |

Response: Anne Frank was an amazing person. She overcame so many hardships and inspired so many people without even knowing it. She kept a positive outlook on life no matter what, which I thought was incredible. Its amazing how she had to be locked up in order to learn how to spread her wings and soar. Every girl should be inspired by her. I've seen so many people, girls and boys alike, her age who treat others with cruelty and hatred. A tiny amount of the cruelty experienced in the Holoucaust goes on in everyday life. People are shunned for not being beautiful, "popular", and I'm sure there are other reasons too. Every person can make a difference, but most don't, just because of fear that others won't like them. Everyone just wants to be loved. Just being kind to someone and being their friend can make a huge difference in their lives. This world is brimming with both cruelty and kindness, it really depends on what side you want to be on. I know that not everyone makes the right decision always, and there is always a little guilt, but there's always a second chance, if a person is wise enough to take it. Anne made the best of the situation; she had a beautiful relationship with Peter, one filled with so much truth and honesty that many of us nowadays would envy it. The world is full of opportunities, and it's all about choosing the right path. Inner strength is something we cant live in peace without, and it's never too late to develop the skill. It's really not just what Jews went through at this time, but what so many people have experienced and are going through now. We don't have a perfect world now. Lives are being torn apart at this very second. Even people who are living and breathing normally, a heart is just about the worst thing to break. Many people choose to separate themselver from the blindingly obvious truth: as a planet, we still have so many things to resolve, so many hearts to heal. Suffering and grief are everywhere, and as the leaders of tomorrow, it's up to us to save our planet and all of its inhabitants. Yes, all of them, not just the people. Just because creatures other than us can't write touching novels, doesn't mean they don't go through the same, if not more, suffering each day as we do. They feel pain, why don't they matter? Just take that spider outside, and it's another life saved. We have to do something, nothing is just going to go away on its own. Anne Frank knew that nature is something beautiful, and if we all work together, anything is possible. Inner peace is the first step to peace on Earth. |

Response: I thought of Anne Frank's diary as a very interesting and deep book. It described Anne's thoughts and what she thought about the world at that time. One thing she wrote is controversial to what people may think today: Everyone is good at heart. |
