Edith Frank and Auguste Van Daan (real name Van Pels) met occasionally before the war, either through their husbands or at the Frank's appartment for afternoon coffee. During the period in hiding Edith and Auguste didn't get on to well. Auguste poked fun at Edith's child rearing methods. Edith was quiet and reserved, whereas Auguste was loud and entertaining. It has been said that Edith would have rather had the Goslar family hide with them instead of the Van Daans/Pels but this was unsuitable due to the heavily pregnant Mrs. Goslar and her young child. It is a shame that Edith and Auguste didn't become friends as they both had similar backgrounds and both, no doubt, had similar feelings during hiding. If they had put their differences aside they could have provided comfort to each other.
