Anne and her family were living by the rules of the Nazis for about two years. Anne got her red diary on her twelfth birthday in June. She wrote in her diary everyday. She called her diary "kitty." Everything she wrote in her diary she would never be able to explain to any real person. When Anne and her family were in hiding they were not able to make loud noises, or even go outside. While Anne and her family were in hiding someone told the Nazis that they're in hiding. Anne and her family were found and taken by the police and put into concentration camps with the Jews, black people, homosexuals, gypsies and others.
