What historical cause the Franks to go into hiding is that Nazi's were finding all the Jews and taking them into consentration camps and then killing them. This effects on there early lives because they have experienced more things that the kids at the age are not suppost to have experienced .

The effects they had on the kews for wearing the star was so they could brand them with it , so they could slip them apart. I think the star meant that they had done something bad to the Nazis' and that all jews should pay. They also wanted only to have one kind of people.

8. After Mr. Kraler asks if Jan Dussel can join the Franks and the Van Daans in hiding, what does the dialogue among the characters reveal about their personalities?
The character of the people show many things like for example it showes that Mr. Frank is a nice guy becausethere were a lot of people in the house and he just sayed yes. It shows that Mr. Van Daans is not such a good guy because when they said he was coming he said that there is not to many food for all of them to survive and that was kind of selfish of him to say.

1. What do you like best about Anne Frank?How would you like having her as a friend? What I like best about Anne Frank is that she sayes what she has to say and dosen' keep it only in her mind. I would loving her having as a friend because she would be honest to me and tell the the truth.

Its like 3 more months because they got cought like in the month of February. The characters had changed because they got mad at any little thing and they just got mad of being in there for a year almost. I know that has changed because the way she dosent be friendly to the people.
