John 5

My last connection is the relationship between the book Runner and AnneFrank's Diary of a Young Girl. In the book Runner, a boy who loves to run ispayed money to retreive strange packages from secret areas and return themto a criminal for money. No one is to know about this and he will be hurt ifhe tells anyone, so he suspects he is retrieving drugs. Anne and the boy inRunner share a similar thing: both have a secret that if exposed, could havethem killed. The only difference is that Anne dies in the end, while the boylives. I find this to be similar because they both describe their fear oftheir secret graphically. Both are deathly afraid that someone will findout.
