The Giver - Lois Lowry

This novel allows the reader to gain insight into the mind of an innocent child, vs the mind of a questioning adult, and how each of them recognizes the values of morals in every situation. The reader accompanies the narrator through his journey into adulthood. This novel allows the reader to see what truths about life and society are missed when seen through the lens of innocence. The students will be able to take a glance into a society that is free of crime and sadness. They will find out the cost of such a society and whether or not it is worth that cost. This book also gives students the rare opportunity to decide for themselves how the book ends and why it is important.
