Kitty plays a vital role in anne's life elucidate

Kitty was the name of Anne's diary. It was undoubtedly the most important thing possessed by Anne. Anne is often seen as an insecure girl who, initially, had no one to confide in. She wanted someone to listen to her as evident by the statement ''I hope I will be able to confide everything to you, as I have never been able to confide in anyone, and I hope you will be a source of great comfort and support'' which was added by Anne in the diary.


Anne never really got along with her mother largely due to her immature ways that changed a lot when she moved into the Annexe. She used to resent her sister Margot who was apparently the epitome of good behaviour and the favourite of all. She was often set as an example for Anne. The only person she actually loved was her dad, few months down the lane she started distancing herself from her dad as well. 

She got Kitty as a birthday gift and has admitted that it was the best gift of all. Since then she's written everything about how she feels and what she thinks. Who she likes and things that are wrong. She has confessed her love for Peter Van Daan and the lost love of Peter Schiff. 

She also has immense knowledge about the war and the politics as shown in the dairy. Her diary proves to be the evidence of the quick sense of humour and satire expressed by Anne. Kitty also has witnessed the change in Anne's thoughts over the years. Anne had developed into a mature being with her own thoughts and judgements. 

Kitty has recorded all her fears, happiness, anxieties and hopes. Despite of the isolation, Anne never really felt alone with her diary. It had provided an avenue for Anne to vent her feelings. And thus Kitty has definitely been the most important part of Anne's life.
