Chapter 4: From the Diary of Anne Frank Amanda!

Writing in a diary was a strange experience for Anne Frank because she had never written anything before in a diary as she had received it as a gift on her thirteenth birthday. She considered the diary to be her best friend, where she could write all her thoughts and feelings. However, she also felt that no one would be interested in the musings of a thirteen-year-old schoolgirl. Hence she could write freely in the diary to get all her worries off her chest.

Anne always used to feel lonely and upset as she had no friends. She wanted to get all the burdens and worries off her chest. Hence she decided to keep a diary where she could confide her secrets and treat it as a true friend.

Anne had a strong feeling that paper had more patience than people to listen to her mental state. It was easier for her to pen down all her thoughts and wishes that she had in her mind in a diary. Hence, to confide her secrets, she felt her personal diary was the best companion, and it was also not meant for anyone else to read.
