The Giver
The Giver is written by Lois Lowry in 1993. I enjoyed the book and I really like the plot. I will recommend to read the book. I recommend the book because, I feel the characters have many memories that is about the nature.
The story is about a 11 year old boy named Jonas, and he lives in a bad society or a community. The gender roles and laws in the community are assigned.For example, girls have to wear hair bows in the community.
So a girl is assigned to be the birthmother, and she thinks it is a bad job. When the children are grown, families and adults live together with childless adults until they are too old to funcion in the society. So, there was a 7 year old girl named Lily that is assigned to be the birthmother. At the beginning of the novel, Jonas is apprehensive, the Ceremony of 12. I remembered that Jonas can’t pick a career.
So, the things I did not like the book is the gender roles in the
community, and about the careers that this community assigns you. So, I really like the book because, they have great memories about when they are little, and what they dreamed about. I like the characters, and how do they show off their memories. For example, they have memories about the sled that is in the snow because, it is reminding me about a beautiful winter. So, it is great to read for adults and kids because, it is a award in the 1990’s, and a lots of people wanted to learn about how memories are changed or the difference.So you can buy this book at Chapters, Indigo, and Ebay, and other stores you can buy the book about the Giver.
