Diaries are kept by many to record their thoughts, ideas, and memories. Authors sometimes use a fictional character and their journal to tell a story. Other times, diaries from real people are turned into works of literature.
Anne Frank is one of the most famous victims of the Holocaust. She recorded events that she witnessed and her feelings in a journal her father gave her for her 13th birth. As a Jewish girl born in Germany, the Frank family hid from the Nazis and was soon found. They were brought to Auschwitz where Anne died. Her diary was given to her father, who then completed her wishes to be an author and had it published.
