THE STORY I READ WHICH IS THE GIVER
IS SYMBOLIC BECAUSE IT TALKS JONES
AND HES ASTIMENT AS MEMORY OF
RECIEVER. THEY ALSO TALKED ABOUT THE
GIVER.
:0} 2nd
THE STORY IS VERY CONFUSING TO
FIND OUT IF IT TAKES PLACE IN THE
FUTURE OR THE PAST BUT IT TAKES PLACE
IN THE PAST. THE PLACE THE STORY
TAKES PLACE IN A COMMUNITY.
JONES IS A TWELVE YEAR OLD BOY
THAT HAS JUST RECEIVED HIS ROLE. HIS
ROLE IS TO BE THE RECIEVER OF MEMORY.
JONES HAS A NORMAL SIZED KID THAT WAS
SOMETIMES CONFUSED OF WHAT GOES ON,
TO ME HE SEEMS TO HAVE BROWN HAIR. HE
LIKES TO PLAY SPORTS AND GAMES HES
FRIENDS MAKEUP. THE GIVER IS AN OLD
MAN WITH A LONG BEARD, AND A MUTACH
THAT IS WHITE ALONG WITH THE HAIR ON
HIS HEAD. HE IS A QUIET MAN WITH A LOT
OF PATINENTS THAT IS TIRED ALL OF THE
TIME. ASHER IS JONES BEST FRIEND THAT
ALSO HAS SHORT BROWN HAIR. ASHER IS A
LITTLE TWELVE YEAR OLD BOY THAT LIKES
TO DO THE THINGS JONES DOES LIKE RIDE
BIKES, PLAY SPORTS, AND PLAY GAMES.
ASHER IS ALWAYS LATE TO CLASS AND
ALWAYS HAS AN EXCUSE.
:0} 3RD
IT A STORY ABOUT HOW JONES TURNS
TWELVE AND GETS THE ROLE OF BEING THE
RECIEVER OF MEMORY. JONES TURNS
TWELVE AT THE SAME TIME AS ALL THE
OTHER LITTLE CHILDREN IN THE STORY.
ONCE THEY TURN TWELVE THEY ALL GO TO
AN ASSEMBLEY AND RECEIVE THEIR ROLES
ON THE COMMUNITY. WHEN JONES IS
CALLED UP TO THE STAGE HE RECIEVES HES
ROLE AS THE RECIEVER OF MEMORY. ALL
THE CHILDREN LEAVE TO GO TO THIER
JOBS, WHEN JONES GETS TO HES JOB HE
MEETS AND OLD MAN KNOW AS THE GIVER.
AFTER THAT JONES GOES THROUGH
SPEACIL TRAINING AND RECIEVES HES
ROLE. AS HE GOES THROUGH TRAING
JONES JOB DOESN?T TURN OUT TO BE FUN
AND GAMES AS HE EXPECTED.
:0} 4TH
THE CONFLICT OF THE STORY IS MAN
AGINST MAN BECAUSE JONES IS RECEIVING
MEMORYS OF THE PAST. ONE OF THE
MEMMORYS IS THE WAR, HE FELLS FIRE
AND HEARS MAN YELLING AND SEES BLOOD
FROM MEN BLOWEN AWAY IN THE WAR. IT
COULD AS WELL BE MAN AGAINST MAN
BECAUSE JONES TRYS TO SURVIVE
THROUGH THE HURRICAN AND OTHER
NATURE CAUSING THINGS LIKE TORNADOS
AND FLOODS.
THE POINT OF VIEW IS 1ST PERSON
BECAUSE ITS JONES TALKING ALL THE TIME
ABOUT WHATS GOING ON AND WHAT
HAPPENED IN THE PAST AND WHAT
HAPPENING NOW.
I DINT REALLY NOTICE A THEME BUT I
THINK THE THEME IS MOST LIKELY THAT
NOT TO THIMK JOBS ARE FUN AND GAMES.
BUT THE ONE THEME THAT I THINK THE
AUTHUR WANTS TO CONVEY TO ME IS THAT
EVEN IF WE HAVENT FELT THE HURTNESS
OF THINGS, OTHER PEOPLE HAVE, ALSO
THAT US KIDS SHOULD BE KIDS WHILE WE
HAVE A CHANCE AND WHEN WE GROW UP ITS
GOING TO BE HARD AND PEOPLE TRUST US
KIDS FOR EVERYONES FUTURE.
MY OPION OF THE STORY IS I LIKED IT
A LOT I THOUGHT IT WAS A VERY
INTRESTING BOOK. EVEN THOUGH I READ
THE STORY IN FOURTH GRADE I DID NOT
MIND READING IT AGAIN. I LIKED THE BOOK
BECAUSE IT WAS SORT OF SAD, AND
INTERESTING TO ME. THE ONLY PART OF
THE STORY I DIDN?T LIKE WAS THE FACT
THAT IT TOOK SO LONG FOR JONES TO
RECEIVE HES ROLE TO BE THE RECIEVER OF
MEMORY.
