The Giver by Lois Lowry

Title of the book: The Giver

Author: Lois Lowry

Number of total pages: 219


 "The Giver" is about Jonas, who lives in really strange community, much different that ours. When I started reading the book I thought that it was really boring but as I kept reading it became interesting. In that community people can is only in black and white and the biggest difference is that everyone cannot be better that the other people in something so everyone has to be the same.The community gives you a job when you become twelve years old.
  The most interesting part for me was when Jonas became twelve years old and he got his job for his entire life. That job was not simple but the most important job in the community, "The receiver of memory".
 Unknown word: Rows
 Sentence: "Ash!" he called, spotting his friend near the rows of bicycles.
Definition:  a number of persons or things arranged in a line, especially a straight line.
