My giving of The Giver In the book difference is eliminated by eliminating all color, choices, and emotions. To the people no one knows difference to them color is not a thing all they see is black and white also choices are taken from them. In The Giver sameness is negative thing because it stops creativity, people don't understand difference, and lastly it makes them behave like robots. Sameness is a bad thing. In The Giver sameness is a bad thing because... It stops creativity so…

Who would’ve thought that a story from hundreds of years in the past and a story from hundreds of years in the future would have two characters with so many similarities. Huckleberry Finn from The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and Jonas from The Giver are more similar than you think. They also have several differences. The first thing to be compared are the stories themselves. The adventures of Huckleberry Finn takes place in the 1840s while The Giver takes place sometime in the future. Both…

Jonas values life , but probably doesn’t know the reason of life yet, until he gets the memories. Additionally,”Sideways, spinning, the sled hit a bump in the hill and Jonas was jarred loose and thrown violently into the air. He fell with his leg twisted under him, and could hear the crack of bone. His face scraped along jagged edges of ice and when he came, at last, to a stop, he lay shocked and still, feeling nothing at first but fear.” He finally had fun doing something that wasn’t in his…

This is shown when Jonas goes beyond the edge and Asher, being a pilot, is asked by the Chief Elder to find him, and when he does, to “lose” him; however, when Asher does find him, he lets him go because he trusted him.

The Giver is mostly about a boy named Jonas, who lives in a dystopian society. The book explains everything that happens in the society very detailedly so it is easy to get into character. One thing that really caught my interest was when Jonas was dishonest to Asher. This caught my interest because Asher and Jonas are truly good friends and I would have never thought that one would lie to the other. Although I know Asher is his friend, I also know that Jonas is now allowed to lie and he…

In the movie there are some similarities. The first one I noticed was that Sarah didn’t believe that John Smith was his real name. I think she didn’t believe him because it is such a common name. Another one is Bernie Kosar follows John everywhere. If John is going to school or running in the woods Bernie is always there. When Henri was telling John that they had to leave, John just held him in the air until he agreed to let them stay so he could say bye to Sarah. Also both in the book and the…
