Great book!

The words and how the reader put this together is amazing.

Bringing this book home to read, I had no idea what it would contain. My father recognized the book immediately after being told about it a while back by my aunt who had read it. He told me to give him the book immediately, and naturally I asked why. I gave him the book waiting for my answer. He opens the book to a page and starts reading. I was shocked. I had no idea that this would be contained in a "children's book". My father and mother had a talk with my teacher and heard her point of view of the book. She said that that very graphic abortion part in the book shows what can happen when 1 person is in charge. My parents realized that she had a point and let me continue reading the book. This book was great and I give it 5 STARS. It was worth reading. Thank you Lois Lowry for this book. It was written well and with good intentions.

This is the best book i have EVER read, but I like FNaF books better, amazing book

The Giver is a very thought-provoking novel. It perfectly captures the essence of growing up, and coming of age. The plot twists are so enthralling and you'll just get more and more attached to each character, that by the end of the book, you'll feel like you've known them all your life. It ends in a sort of cliff-hanger, so it just leaves you needing more of the story, and that, I love.

It's awesome!

I was reading the book in class and thought it was going to be really bad and boring. I could not have been more wrong, I was entranced by the book. It will definitely have you hooked by the 3rd chapter if not sooner.

This book will make you think about a lot of things. Like what if our world was like this book what would you have done would you do what he did?
