Answer:
In the play "The diary of Anne Frank," by Albert Hackett and Frances Goodrich, Miep Gies and Mr. Kraler help the Franks and the Van Daans because they like them and wish to protect them. Actually, Mr. Frank appreciates Miep, since he always speaks politely to her. However, Miep and Mr. Kraler still have feelings of apprehension about helping the families. The reason is that they must keep the shelter of the families secretely; otherwise, they will be killed.
