Write the character sketch of Margot Frank
Answers
Margot was three years older than Anne so was probably more aware of the family's move from Germany to Holland, which took place when she was seven years old. Margot was a quiet, obedient child, who always kept her clothes neat and clean, unlike her younger sister.
Margot was the eldest child of Franks. She had reserve nature. She had won the confidence of her mother. She always liked to share her feelings with her mother .She was friendly with Anne. She was a silent worker. She was, in fact, a contrast to Anne. She did not speak much, unlike Anne. She never interfered into anyone’s matter. She kept to herself. She was a brilliant girl. She always scored good marks in her exams. She was a voracious reader.
Margot had an unobtrusive presence, she did not question her circumstances as much as Anne did and this exasperated her younger sister. There are references to Margot’s failing health and increasing withdrawal and reclusiveness which indicates that the strain of her life in the annex was taking a toll on her.
Like her mother, Margot was also trying to cope with the constant dread of being discovered and having to behave normally during such difficult times. However, Anne could not help but admire the resilience and grace under pressure that Margot exhibited.
Anne does not offer much of an insight into her sister’s character but it is evident Margot was an accomplished girl with impeccable manners and incredible strength of character.
