Times are hard for the Jews. They are no longer allowed to use bicycles, public transportation, or ride in any automobiles. They are not allowed to go to the movies, and are forced to go to an all Jew school. Many places have banners prohibiting Jews from entering. Jews are now being arrested and taken to concentration camps.

The Frank family has help while they are in hiding. Miep Gies, a worker at Otto's former business, and Victor Kugler, also a worker at the business, provides the family with food and supplies.

In Anne's diary, Anne writes about the problems in the annex. With limited food and little space, this is not surprising. But she also speaks about her developing relationship with 16 year old Peter Van Pals and her arguments with her mother Edith.

Although Anne thinks they have it hard, they are actually very lucky to have what they have. While Anne is in hiding, most Jews were being arrested and sent to concentration camps everyday. There they are likely to die from disease and starvation, or be killed.
