What did Anne Frank take into hiding?

Anne Frank didn't take many personal belongings into hiding with her. The family was forced to leave their home in a hurry, and they were only allowed to take what they could carry.

Here's what we know she took:

* A diary: This is the most famous item Anne took with her. She started writing in it on her 13th birthday, and it became her confidante and a record of her experiences in hiding.

* A few personal items: Anne likely took a few treasured items like photos or trinkets.

* Basic clothing: She would have taken a few changes of clothes.

* Schoolbooks: Anne was a bright student and likely took some of her schoolbooks with her.

The Frank family, like other families in hiding, were limited in what they could bring. They prioritized essentials and were not allowed to have possessions that could attract unwanted attention.
