Description
“The Giver” by Lois Lowry
This unforgettable story is a journey, told from the unique perspective of a young man named Jonas, in a uniquely presented literature study guide. He thinks he lives in a perfect world, with rules and order maintained for the good of the whole Community. When he comes of age, he is told he must report to a mysterious man with the title, The Receiver of Memory, where he will work as his apprentice. There, a whole new world opens up for Jonas as he learns of words, emotions, and memories that were previously unfamiliar to him. As his knowledge grows and his awareness of how isolated their lives are from the past, Jonas must decide what is best for the Community— to continue to shield them from the mistakes of the past, or share both the pain and the joys that a life full of emotion can bring.
