Summer Reading Response about "The Giver "

      The Giver is about these diffrent of zones & its very organizad things are always in order . For example all kids depending on their age get to do diffrent things . Like when your 8 you can learn how to ride a bike or something . This kid Jonas is 13 years old and he's getting ajob . But in these zones you just don't go out to find a job they pick your jobs . Jonas got the job as the "giver" which is a job that isnt given out to every person . With this job Jonas goes through physical & mental pain . The man that was choosen for the giver , 20 years before , has to give Jonas his "powers" & his mentallity . With these power Jonas can see things that the other people from his town cant & can feel things that  the other people can't . For example like he can see colors & can feel really sharp pains & much more . But Jonas can't share his powers or tell anyone what its like to be learning for a giver .

     This book is has alot of discription and diffrent details . It's intresting how the author uses the people that dont see or do what Jonas does , & their diffrent opinions . How he reacts to their questions . I also like that the author uses colors to represent diffrent things . I like how the people can't really see or feel or even react to anything . But then here comes Jonas and he could do what us humans can do . So you can say that the people from these zones aren't your normal humans , you can say that their pretty much like robots . That cant do anything without rules & regulations. But this book has a lot more of conflicts . For example , Jonas gets a brother , but he might get killed off because once you have more one boy in the family and you get another the second one gets killed off. But Jonas doesn't want this to happen . So he does some intresting things to help privent this . The Giver is a great book I really recommend that you read it.
