The giver diary
(old house)
The book "the giver" by
Lois Lowry is a really interesting book. In the past few weeks i had read the
first 4 chapters. In this chapters the narrator talk about the life of
Jonas and his society. Jonas is a kid how have 11 years and is really nervous
for the important last ceremony of twelve. At this ceremony he will be tell his
assignment for the rest of his life. His society is a really strange one and
have a lot of strange rules. one of this rules is that pilots cannot flay over
the community. In page 1 and 2 they talk about a plane that enter to the
community the government ask everyone to get inside but a few minutes later
they tell everyone that it was an accident . Jonas was really nervous about the
ceremony and he tell his parents in the talk of the night (that was another
rule were you need to share your fillings) . His parents want to calm him so
they told him about the ceremony and his assignment. they told him that it was
chosen by what they do in their Volunteering hours but there was a problem Jonas
has spent his Volunteering hours in every place of community. Jonas also always
was wearied in the rules of his community but he relax when he now that his
father broke one. his father work with the new babies. There was a baby that wasn’t
good so he brought it home and broke a law by watching his name. The last chapter I had read was number 4 in this
chapter Jonas is competing his volunteering hours. He always make them with his
friend Asher but this time he didn’t find him. When he finally find him he was
at the old hours with Fiona. Fiona is a girl that Jonas kind of like her. In there
he talked with a woman about the relist of a man.
There is a quote in particular that I
think that stands out. In page 28 they say “but he finally found Asher’s bicycle leaning,
as usual, instead of upright in its port, as it should have been at the house
of old. There was only one other child bicycle there, that of a female Eleven named
Fiona.” This quote make me think that Asher’s
may like Fiona. This could be very controversial because at a part of the book
when they present Fiona the narrator say that Jonas kind of like Fiona. I predict
that Jonas and Ashur are going to fight because of Fiona.
Dear readers this couple of weeks had
bring me a lot of emotion and I think that this will continue like this. Each week or couple of weeks I will be posting
new writings for you to read. In this I will be talking of what happen in what I
read and readers like you can comment of what is happening know . This is a really
good book and I believe that can be a really good theme to talked about.
