The giver
Author - Lois Lowery
Grade/Reading Level - 6 and up
Jonas lived in a future community
Where everyone lived in unity
They did not see color
Or choose their own job
Nothing could be duller
But no one was a slob
He became the Receiver of Memory
And learned about much joy and tragedy
He wanted to change the people
So he had to leave
He went far away
So people could feel grieve
You will love The Giver
If dystopian societies are your style
I give it 3.5 stars out of 5
Hope that you read it and smile

Jonas, the new receiver was stuck in a land of no color, feelings, or pain. A land filled with equality of everyone and decisions that are already made. When Jonas met the Giver he learned what "Real life" is like. Life with color, feelings, and pain. The Giver gave Jonas memories of the past. As Jonas learned about war, suffering, sledding, and beaches he became curious, anxious, and wanted to share these memories and feelings with the rest of his community. Throughout the book The Giver, Jonas learned sometimes, it's good to go outside of the box.
The movie The Giver, is coming out in August 2014.
