  • 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.

  • the war images were really powerful

  • Ha, the war scene. Thats from a My Chemical Romance music video.

    It's called Ghost Of You. Look it up. It's a great music video, & song.^.^

  • 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!

  • @TeacherSayz If u actually read the rest of the series, you wouold know what really happens to Jonas and Gabe.

  • @TeacherSayz also you know how before you die you go into a state of joy and happiness? well maybe jonas was about to die

  • lololol You used the Ghost of You vid by MCR?! Wow, i always thought of that sond while reading the Giver - nice video! :D

  • I can't believe you used the ghost of you. I had to read the book for school and I'd always think of that.

  • at my school library that book is in there and i read the book and i am more than happy to say that is and will remain my favoeite book

  • @xXKatiebuggXx its actually there

  • 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?
