SPOILER ALERT! I have read all the books from the series (The Giver-The Messenger). Jhonas is in fact alive in the third book. If you have also read Gathering Blue you would know what im talking about. In the third book Matt becomes Mattee in ''yonder village''. In the third book they also talk about An 8 year old named Gabriel. And guese who is their ''chiefe so to speake... Jonas!
weird how the giver has been removed from public libraries and school libraries by some arguments about the book because its said that people are frighted of this book. i think its a great book anyone who wants an amazing novel to read choose this one. i dont know but this book just made me feel what if this really happened? but still how can school districts be afraid of this book?
@MrSkateholic we had to read this book for the fifth grade. and i thought it was going to be completely boring... no no no... its the best book ever! i love the ending too. liking how he escapes the last couple chapters.
@ohsuuupjess yeah it was good. the story continues though, I thinking one of the prodessors is like, catching blue, or collecting blue, or something like that.
Lowry leaves the ending open for the reader to interpret. There are 2 basic interpretations - 1 jonas and Gabe really do make it to "elsewhere" and find a warm loving family celebrating Christmas to welcome them. 2 - perhaps Jonas is remembering a Christmas memory - one of the most beautiful things the Giver ever gave him - as he had Gabe are freezing to death. There are 2 other books by Lowry that accompany The Giver. One is Gathering Blue, and the other is The Messenger.
He did not die of starvation. At the end of the book, it said that he was on top of a snowy hill, found a sled(Somehow) and rode down the hill, and saw a family celebrating Christmas or something.
@redjughead: no, i don't think he saw a family celebrating.. The book said, he heard what he know as music, and heard people celebrating. He knew they were waiting for them there, in Elsewhere.... Right?
@redjughead: no, i don't think he saw a family celebrating.. The book said, he heard what he know as music, and heard people celebrating. He knew they were waiting for them there, in Elsewhere.... Right?
@TiaraMarie92 I already have I said that cuz they didnt have gabe in this and im reading "the sequal" to this give its called the gathering blue, its an opposite world of the giver
i loved the book! i had to read it in a group in class! now i have to reanact a scene on tape! witch one should i reanact!!??? tell me! its due on: 10-26-09!!!!! ill put it on utube if you hurry and tell me an answer!!! hurry! help me!!!!!
I read the book yesterday in my opinion, they didn't die. They manage to escape from the community, there will be a movie on 2011. I will be anxious to see it. At first I didn't like the book but then it became interesting
AHH! thats so cute! i just finished the book today.. i cried... That was awesome how he took gabey with him, but it be cool if fiona , is friend , came to..
jonas died guys...or he was imagining the first memeory the giver gave him bcuz the snow felt like the snow in the memory. there are a lot of different speculations about the book. i think he diied. but some people think he found elsewhere
he doesn't die, in gathering blue, there is a mention of "a boy with pale eyes and a two-syllable name" as Gabe isn't old enough (even in messenger) to have a two syllable name, this can't be him, so I think the "boy with pale eyes and a two-syllable name" is Jonas.
This is a really good book and the movie is really good to you guys have to watch it it is a really great movie but it is very sad in most of the movie some funny parts some but otherwise its a very good movie.
@MrN3AL agreed, but people are to focused on making regurgitated horrors about kids being chased around by psycotic maniacs lol same thing over again, different characters . . . .
if only hollywood tried something different and worth while for once.
Sounds exciting, though I'm pretty sure the book would be far better than the movie, no matter how good, not even if Robert Pattenson was involved somehow.
i heard from my teacher that they were making it a movie and supposedly coming out at the end of 2009 ether the way it i can't wait for it to come out
and gabrial is a little kid in messenger ,and kira is in another book called gathering blue and so is matty and seer but mattys name is just matt and seers real name is christopher
In "Messenger" it said "...the schoolteacher, gently tutored a mischievous eight-year-old named Gabe..." so he survived and also in the book it said that the Leader was telling Matty the very first thing he saw beyond, was an apple...now who was the person in "The Giver" who saw beyond and it was an apple..."Jonas"!
Why isn't there a movie for the Giver? Even the crappiest books get movies these days. Oh, i know why..they would not be able to change it in a annoying love story like they always do for tv
i read it...my teacher wants us to create our own community in the class...with a flag, motto, and map of the community, we also had to create a goverment
well i think the author left it for the readers own interpirtation...does he die....does he make it to a new community...
but i think personally tht when he left the music was passed to the community and he was hearing them partying becasue sameness was gone now...but jonas wasnt sure so he percieved it as an echo...BUT remember echos hav to come from somewhere
The ending is not sad at all. The giver does not die he just doesn't run off with Jonas because without him the community would not make it. Jonas doesn't die either because he makes it to elsewhere with Jonas. It's actually pretty much a happy ending if you think about it. But you never know since Lois Lowry left it a cliffhanger with the music and all.
i know jonas doesnt die, i didnt think they would go on to read the other books
i said it made his fate uncertain. and the giver tells jonas that the people who control the city thing are going to kill him. so it implies that he dies and i said it left jonas' fate uncertain. it never says whether theyre dead or not but again, i dont thin ktheyll go on to read the other books if theyre reading it for school
