Foreshadowing (question a)

"Why does Mr. Frank break down when he sees the white glove?'

I think that the white glove belongs to Anne. When he sees the glove, he remembers when they were taken out of their home by the Nazis. I think as we read into the story the white glove will pop up again, maybe as a birthday or Christmas present. I think that the glove was very precious to Anne, because it must have been significant to er to make Mr. Frank cry like that.

Hey Caleb!
Great job with your blog post~
Anyways I'm pretty sure it was Anne's glove because I remember seeing it on her hands when she want to Peter's room to 'talk.' They made it seem like a date but it was just going to Peter's room. She dressed up and had gloves on. I think Mr. Frank just started crying because the glove gave him a memory of the past and how Anne wore the glove around. He probably just truly and terribly missed them all. It was a very emotional time for him. I wouldnt have been able to hold my tears. I would have immediately broken down and sobbed for hours and days.
Anyways, again, good job and see you tomorrow!
