The Giver novel study
This term we were reading a novel called The Giver. It is about a boy called Jonas, who lives in a dystopia. Last week we watched the movie, once we finished the novel, and I wrote a summary.
The giver film was really good because it made me realize how lucky I am. In their universe, they had no colour, and very strict rules. I can't imagine life with these rules.
I liked the end of the film, because it gives us a good visual of what happens. I think it was nice how he found the house, I reckon it was warm and cozy.
I also enjoyed the book. I enjoyed the work overall, and just listening to the book. it's definitely one to remember.
Kia ora Kate!

What a fascinating sounding story. What sort of strict rules did they have in place in this dystopia?
Was it a good ending to the book? Was the book and the movie different from each other? Would you recommend I read the book?
Next time I’d suggest you explain the plot with a bit more detail, so I have an idea of what happens!
