stephanie writes the following about The Giver :

This book is about a world that used to be perfect and then jonas [ a main character] is given a special gift from the giver. Jonas first thinks that it is going to be a good time to send memories untill he gets a memory of something that is called LOVE and from there he starts to realize that he wants his own family unit to feel love but they don't understand what that means and he starts to feel pain and see things the way they really are instead of everything being there for you and everything being perfect. This book is good because it teaches you things that maybe you have never thought about and it makes you appreciate the things that you have around you each and every day. That is why I reccommend this book.
