Lois Lowry’s The Giver is the quintessential dystopian novel, followed by its remarkable companions, Gathering Blue, Messenger, and Son.

Jonas's world is perfect. Everything is under control. There is no war or fear of pain. There are no choices. Every person is assigned a role in the community. When Jonas turns 12 he is singled out to receive special training from The Giver. The Giver alone holds the memories of the true pain and pleasure of life. Now, it is time for Jonas to receive the truth. There is no turning back.

What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?

I liked Ron Rifkin as The Giver but not as Jonas, a little too whiny at times with his voice.

Any additional comments?

The book was amazing at bringing you along for the ride, the most sad part was Jonas seeing what the 'release' was. Really good character development and would recommend to anyone. As with others, the cheesy music was really bad and sometimes made it tough to hear the story.

Excellent story that unfolds before your eyes

I found this book in the library one day, and couldn't put it down. The Giver is a fascinating story, and Lowry draws you in. Even though the wold is completely foriegn, you understand it completely, and it doesn't confuse you. Soon after finishing it, I devoured the two sequels. Lowry is a wonderful author, and I completely recomend all of her books, especially this one.

Absolutely Fabulous

I loved the performance because when I started reading the book for school I couldn’t get into it and had trouble actually reading it and than I came on here and listened to it and I actually liked it a lot. Didn’t love the music was distracting and didn’t under stand the end.

Made it much easier to get into the book

I loved the story and the narration was great. I just disliked the periodic music.

Why the music?

I absolutely loved the novel itself. The recording was a little dull, but the voices and music helped greatly. Emphasized key moments well.

Loved the Book
