The Diary of Anne Frank Tuesday, May 16, 1944 Summary

  • The van Daans have an argument about who will win the war—the Germans or the Allies. Mrs. van Daan thinks that Germans could win, which makes her husband mad. They’re incredible bickerers.
  • The Franks can’t resist laughing at the van Daans’ silly arguments.
  • Anne does a survey about what kinds of books and subjects each member of the Secret Annex prefers.
