The Giver

Jonas's world is perfect. Everything is under control. There is no war or fear or pain. There are no choices. Every person is assigned a role in the community. But Jonas wasn't assigned, he was selected by the elders of the community.
When Jonas turns twelve, he is singled out to receive special training from The Giver. The Giver alone holds the memories of the true pain and pleasure of life. Now it's time for Jonas to recieve the truth. There is no turning back

  1. Oh I love this book! How did you feel about this book when you finished reading it? I felt that even though the memories of the true histories are a pain, it also contains the beautiful feelings that only human beings are allowed, so should be grateful that we are not like fishes, with no memories!
