Theme living post

I think that so far the theme of the Diary of Anne Frank is about how even though the two families are confined and going through hard times they can still learn and have fun although it is difficult and they have to struggle to keep a good outlook on life. I think this is the theme because even though Anne wants to go outside and is sick of being confined she is still herself and manages to have fun and pass the time learning and writing.

I think now that being happy and finding joy in hard times is still a theme of The Diary of Anne Frank but the main theme is how prejudice is such a bad thing and that although everyone has it we chould try to stay open minded to liking everyone.

Wow! I think that this is a really great way to look at the theme of this book even though I never would have thought of it that way. I like how you describe it as even though they are confined because they are in hiding and they have to live by all these constricting rules, they can still have fun and learn in a good way. I feel like sometimes this is how we feel in our lives even though we aren't living like Anne and her family had to, we still sometimes feel like we have limits that keep us from doing some things that we want to, but we can still make the most of those situations and do the best that we can with what we've got.
