jonas shouted at the giver and told him he wouldn't go home

jonas was finally able to quiet himself after crying for a while

jonas mimicked the speaker and was acting out of anger

jonas asked the giver if he ever lied to him and the giver says he has the power to but doesn't

release is the same for everyone

feelings aren't part of anyones life so they are all ok with what happens during release

the giver says he wants to make a plan and jonas is confused

the giver explains to jonas how they know that people used to feel pride sorrow love and pain

the giver realizes that things need to change and jonas brought it to his attention

if they failed at their planned jonas would most likely be killed but he didn't think his life was worth living if the truth wasn't out so he said yes to the plan

if jonas escapes he can't go back the community will get the memories

the giver is staying to help the community

the giver doesn't see colours anymore

jonas asked the giver how the begging was different for him jonas started to see colour but still didn't know how it happened for the giver

the giver didn't have the seeing beyond he had the hearing beyond he could hear music

the giver wanted to keep it for himself

jonas made the giver keep the memory

the giver transferred every memory of courage and strength that he could to jonas

jonas needed to find the elsewhere that he knew existed

in the middle of the night before the ceremony jonas would sneak out of his house

jonas would put his bike in the bushes along with a folded pair of clothes then he would go to the annex and see the giver

when his parents wake up they would find a note saying that jonas was out for an early bike ride

his parents would be a little annoyed but not worried enough to go looking for him

they would't know that he wasn't there at the ceremony because they would assume he was with asher or the giver

in the morning the giver would order a vehicle and driver from the speaker

the giver would hide jonas in the storage compartment along with some food

jonas and the giver would begin their ride in the vehicle

searchers would be sent out miday but they would find his clothes and bike

the giver would come back to the community

and he would tell the community he was lost in the river and do the ceremony of loss

jonas understood that the community needed him but he begged the giver to go with him

the giver told jonas he loved him

the giver said he wanted to be with his daughter

her name was rosemary

WHERE DID HE GO?!!!???

# data[].attributes.body
i

# data[].attributes.body
he knew that his destination was near but he had little hope that he would reach it

gabe is becoming more cold and weak

jonas held gabe close to his chest

he tired to go down a hill but his bike wouldn't move

the rest of the h=journey had to be done by foot

jonas got the memory of warmth and he could feel it all throughout his body he wanted to keep it for himself but instead he gave it to gabe because it was the only person for him to love

jonas started to walk up the hill with gabe

he tried to hold onto another memory of warmth but it fadded

he kept on continuing

as he approched the summit of the hill he began to feel happy

he started remebering his family his freinds and the giver

he got to the top of the hill

jonas remebered the hill because it was a memory of his own

jonas found the sled at the top of the hill

jonas struggles to get down the hills while staying consciousn but he knows that elsewhere is at the bottom of the hill

as jonas is going down the hill he sees colour he knows he’s going to a place of love

for a minute jonas heard an echo but maybe it was only an echo

# data[].attributes.body
are they going to die?

do they find food again?

# data[].attributes.body
if jonas had of stuck to his old plan would he have been caught or would ever thing have gone smoothly?

will a plane catch him?

# data[].attributes.body
the path was getting tougher

jonas fell off his bike one night and grabbed gabe instinctively gabe was fine but jonas had twisted his ankle and his knees were scraped

there were more streams

they was wildlife

gabe thought there was a plane but it was bird

they saw a deer and another creature jonas couldn't indetify

they looked at wildflowers and everything that was different

jonas didn't think they would find food and thought they would starve

jonas tried to fish and he used gabes blanket as a net

together they ate raw fish and some berries

jonas tried to remember big celebrations and banquets so that he wouldn't feel so hungry but as soon as the memory left he was starving again

jonas remembered getting chastised for using the word starving when he was younger

he was starving now for real

if jonas had stayed in the community he felt he would have starved in other ways

he would have been starving for feelings colour and love

gabe would have been dead if jonas never left with him

jonas was wearing from lack of food

the were hills

his ankle throbbed

it started to rain and gabe and jonas were cold and wet

gabe and jonas cried because they were cold tired weak hungry scared but jonas also cried because he was scared he would not be able to save gabe

# data[].attributes.body
there plan fell apart

jonas was forced to flee some of the work crew was out

he couldn't stop at the annex

he was on the bridge

jonas wished that the giver heard him say goodbye because he had the power to hear beyond

it started at dinner

gabe cried all night and was a disaster so he's getting released

he's getting released first thing in the morning

he took gabe with him he gave gabe the most soothing memory possible sp he would sleep

he rode hard and steadily on his dads bike and didn't have time to get extra memories from the giver

his legs hurt but then went numb

gabe investigated the tree and grass

the drank water from the stream together they needed to sleep in the trees

gabe just woke but he had to sleep again

he gave gabe the memory of exhaustion

the most dangerous things were the planes

he was getting stronger and rested less

when the planes came he was very scared and wished he had received more memories of courage from the giver

the planes used heat censor so gabe and jonas concentrated on memories of snow and coldness

the memories became less vibrant and more dull which is what the giver hoped would happen as he went further from the community shedding memories

there were less and less planes until one full day passed without any planes

# data[].attributes.body

the giver told jonas he loved him

the giver said he wanted to be with his daughter

her name was rosemary

# data[].attributes.body
the next time jonas sees the giver he asks about release

the giver says sometimes he does want to be released but he knows he won't be able to until he's done training jonas

the giver explains they made that rule 10 years ago after the failure

jonas asks the giver what her name is

her name was rosemary

he said she was very intelligent and eager to learn the giver said rosemary reminded her of jonas

the giver said he loved her very much just like he loved jonas

this emotion made it hard for the giver to make rosemary feel any pain

for five weeks he only gave her happy memories

he couldn't physical hurt her so he gave her emotional pain he started off with loneliness a child being taken from it's parents

rosemary was no longer happy

she barely laughed ever

one day at the end of the lesson she stood up kissed him on the cheek and applied for release

jonas realized that only five weeks worth of memories were released but the community went crazy

the elders added a rule that recievers can't request release

the giver was devestaed and didn't help the community

jonas wondered what would happen if he feel into a lake or something

the giver said that he should stay away from lakes

# data[].attributes.body
when gabe gets older will he remember the memory or will it be  like a normal memory at his age and just fade away?

will jonas use gabe as an outlet for his new painful memories? this is kind of dark but he can receive the memory if it got to overwhelming for jonas one day he could give it to gabe.

# data[].attributes.body
he went down a steeper hill and icy

the sled went very fast and he lost control

he hit a bump and he scra[t his face and broke his legs

felt flames going through his torn ligaments and bond

he vomited and his blood from his face dripped into it

he was in the annex room again

he looked at his leg and it was fine but his legs and face still hurt

he wasn't allowed to take medication

he tried to be brave

his dad offered medication but he declined and when he shared his feelings he said he was just tired

the giver gave jonas more and more pain but ended each lesson with a memory of pleasure

the giver gave jonas a memory of hunger

the giver said that these memories gave him wisdom

the committee wanted the birth mothers to give birth to 4 children instead of 3 so that they could have more labourers but the giver advised that they didn't because the population could go hungry because many generations back the population was starving from overpopulation

the giver told the committee  not to shoot the plane down because he was probably lost he didn't know for sure but he used his wisdom

jonas wants the memories of destruction because he wants wisdom

gabe kept on growing

but during nighttime he was still awake

there's twins being born but one of them will be released they keep the heaver one

he hoped that larissa would be the one to greet the new child

jonas wanted gabe in his room

gabe slept soundly at first

then gabe woke up

jonas accidentally gave half the memory of sailing to gabe

jonas saved half the memory

it was with gabe forever now

later jonas gave gabe the rest of the memory

he didn't want to tell the giver he gave the memory away

# data[].attributes.body
is lily's theory about having twins in another place right?

how did they have a game of war if they were never exposed to guns or war or violence also how are they allowed to play it?

# data[].attributes.body
the town gets an announcement that there is an unscheduled holiday no one has to work

jonas looks for asher

it's been a week since jonas has taken is stirring pills and he's been having the dreams again

he sees colour all the time now

he feels deeper emotions

he remembered his sister said she was angry but he knew she wasn't really angry because of the true;y angry emotions he experienced

jonas finds asher playing with these other kids shooting each other

jonas stops when he realizes that they are basically playing a game of war and he experienced  real war so he wasn't interested in playing

everyone left

jonas tells everyone to stop playing and then asher gets angry because he is the director of recreation

jonas tries to explain but asher just apologizes

gave starts to say his name "gay" is the closest thing to his name

it's almost december so lily will get her bicycle

jonas' father says that twins are going to be born so the lighter one will get released

they weigh the baby and find out which is heaver

they prepare the smaller one for realease

lily starts blabering about what if the twins meet and have the same name etc.

# data[].attributes.body
will jonas confront his dad about killing a baby?

will jonas talk to the elders about not releasing people?

# data[].attributes.body
jonas tells the giver his dad will release the child

jonas wanted to watch

the giver told him he could watch

the giver tells him he has accsess to everything

the release was recorded

the giver told jonas he should

the giver asked the speaker if he could watch it

jonas watched the release

he father started by weighing them both

jonas think his father is going to make the baby all comfortable but...

his dad filled up a needle than injected it into a vain into his head

the new child jerked around but then went limp and jonas reconized his movements

jonas saw the bloody solider in his memories and knew that his father killed him

the giver watched rosemary release (10 years ago)

the giver sat with horror and while she asked if she could inject herself

jonas felt a ripping sensation inside himself

# data[].attributes.body
when the giver said he wanted to be with his daughter was he emplying that he wanted to take his life to be with her or with her spiritually and emotionally?

will the giver change his mind and go with jonas?

# data[].attributes.body
will jonas see some of the memories in a knew way now that he doesn't take his pills?

if other people stop taking their stirring pills would they start feeling love and other human emotions or just have stirrings?

# data[].attributes.body
jonas doessn't want to go back to annex

he just wanted a normal life

the giver is trying to makeup for the warfare memories by giving him memories of nice things like birthday parties

he shows jonas that everyone is individual

jonas experiences riding a horse and the bond between animals and humans

jonas asks the giver what his favourite memory was but he doesn't have to give it away yet

the giver is happy to give away the memory

the memory is about a family  on christmas morning  jonas asked the giver who people were

the giver said they were grandparents

jonas realizes that his parents have parents

he couldn't name the strong emotion

the giver tells him it was love

jonas wishes there was love in his life he wishes that the giver was his grandfather

he recognizes that it is too dangerous to live that way

when the giver told him to explain the analogy that jonas used was the fire that was burning in the room was dangerous although he liked the warmth

jonas asked his parents if they love him

they chuckled and told him to pay attention to precicsion of language"

jonas was confused

the word is meaningless

this made him more confused because the emotion he felt during the memory was not meaningless

when they asked him if he understood what they meant he said yes

that was his first lie to his parents

gabe's crib is in jonas' room

in the middle of the night jonas whispers to gave about memories and love

the next morning jonas threw away his pill

# data[].attributes.body
when jonas shows up to the annex the giver is in pain

jonas says he will go home then he hesitates and asks if he can help in any way

the giver needed to give jonas a certain memory that was causing him pain, the memory of war

the memory started off in a noisy foul smelling place

tha air was thick with lots of smoke

there were dead horses men and chaos all around him

there was a voice asking for water beside him

it was a boy beside him barley older, lying on the ground during his last moments

once jonas gave the boy water he was almost surprised but then his jaw dropped, eyes went blank, and fell silent

soldiers were on the ground dead, or begging for water their mothers or death.

skreiking horses lay on the ground after being stabbed

jonas heard the thud of cannons

overwhelmed by pain he lay there for hours watching everything around him die

finally jonas couldn't take anymore and would "welcome death itself"

when jonas opened his eyes he was on the bed

the giver couldn't look at jonas because he couldn't bear to see what he had done to jonas

"forgive me" is all he said

# data[].attributes.body
if the giver had of made a balance between emotional and physical would she have stayed?

# data[].attributes.body
will jonas be to emotionally scared to keep on receiving and will he ever go back?

will jonas get mad at the giver for giving him this memory?

# data[].attributes.body
genetic scienest changed people preciving colour which makes me think theyre futher into the future

during the next couple of weeks jonas learns more about colours

jonas thinks it's not fair that the world can't see colours

jonas says without colours there aren't choices

he can't decide what colour of shirt to wear

gabe can't choose what toy he wants

he agrees with the giver and realizes that people can make wrong choices which makes it safer

there is still a part of jonas that feels frustrated

he explains how he feels angry all the time

he is frustrated that his friends are satisfied with their dull lives

he tries to get asher to see colour in the flower petals he touches asher which isn't allowed outside the family unit

the giver transmits the memory of killing elephants

this is the first time that jonas is seeing different skin tones and diversity

the memory ends with the elephants mate finding it there on the ground

jonas tells lily that her comfort object (an elephant) actually used to exist

he tries to transmit part of the memory to her but it doesn't work and he ends up hurting her a bit

jonas asks the giver if he has a spouse or if he can even apply for one

his spouse lives with the childless adults

its difficult to have a family because they can't use the books and he can't talk about his job with them

the last receiver of memory from ten years ago were realized to the world and jonas never got them back

they needed a receiver to take the pain from everyone else

jonas starts talking about how the brain works but the giver cut him off

the giver says that they don't know what they're are talking about

he says its pointless without memories

the giver would send jonas away some days because of all the pain he was in but jonas and the giver decide that jonas was ready to take some of that pain away from him

# data[].attributes.body
will the scientist find a way to take jonas' colour away?

what the author is tryig to say about people society, etc.

not to be confused with a theme topic like "love" "war" or "family"

topic - self discovery

people must be able to make choices to reach their own destiny/ and fulfilment

topic - the importance of memory

lowry's personal insiration- father with memory loss

without memory, human beings cannot reach true happinedd or learn from their mistakes

topic - pleasure and pain

without pain, people cannot understand pleasure. we must embrace and learn from pain

topic - blind obedience

it is important for people to question their society instead of folloeing blindy

he starts catching snowflakes on his tongue

part of him realizes that he is still in bed but also he his in the memory

he is surrounded by snow and sitting on the sled

he starts going down the hill going fast but eventually slowing down because of the snow building up at the bottom and he slows down to a  stop

jonas felt happy and invigurated

the old man feels lighter and less tired

the old man admits that he has thousands of other memories like that one

jonas asks the man why they don't have any of that stuff

the man explains climate control but also the committee needed sameness which is why there's no hills

the old man has honour but not much power

the man tests jonas to see if he could name things from the memories

jonas experiences sunshine and is able to identify it

jonas asked the man how the job was considered painful

the man showed him the same sunshine memory except this time he got a sunburn

jonas asks the old receiver since now i'm the new receiver what should i call you

jonas and fiona ride to their assignments

jonas goes into the annex

when the lady greeted him as the receiver it made him uncomfortable

then the door is unlocked which makes him more uncomfortable

there are a lot of books in the room he just entered and he is confused by they because they were only allowed 3 books at their house - rules, jobs, dictionary

he introduces himself to the old receiver and fumbles around with his words

the old receiver says that jonas is the new receiver from now on

jonas points out that the man is old which is a compliment

he isn't that old but the job has worn him out a lot

the man explains that he will transmit memories to jonas

he talks about the weight of the memories and compares it to snow

jonas doesn't know what snow is

the man decides to begin there and that's the first thing he is going to transmit to jonas

jonas lays without his tunic face down on the bed while the man puts his hands on jonas' back

# data[].attributes.body
as everyone leaves the auditorium jonas asks asher to ride home with him and he is hesitant to say yes

jonas asks his parents about the failed receiver

she was a girl but they can't speak her name or name babies after her

no one ever saw hew after her failure

jonas looks through his folder that he got but there is only one sheet of paper with couple rules

1 go immediately at the end if school hours each day to the annex entrance behind the house  of old and present yourself to the attendant

2 go immediately to your dwelling at the conclusion of training
hours each day

3 From this moment you are exempted from the rules governing rudeness. you may ask any questions  of any citizen and you will receive answers

4 do not discuss your training with any other member of the community, including parents and elders

5 from this moment you are prohibited from dream-telling

6 except for ilness or injury related to your training do not apply for any medication

7 you are not permitted to apply for release

8 you may lie

jonas realizes he won't have free time and is shocked by some of the rules

since he can ask rude questions he wanted to ask his father if everyone was allowed to lie once they turned 12 but if he said no jonas wouldn't know if he was lying

# data[].attributes.body
q what does it mean to be the receiver if memory?

p
maybe it means that you can see things other people can't. maybe jonas is seeing flashes of things going on in other places.
a

q what kind of physical pain is he going to go through? will he actually get hurt, or will his gift make him feel insane and feel hurt and destroyed that way?

p
I'm not to sure I guess it could go either way.

# data[].attributes.body
finally all the twelves except jonas received their assignments

then the elder chief apologizes for making everyone anxious

she calls jonas to the stage and tells him he was not assigned

his heart dropped

but then she said he was selected

jonas was selected to be the receiver of memory

the whole crowd gasps because its a big deal

the current receiver also has light eyes

they tried to pick a new receiver 10 years ago but it failed

the qualities the jonas has that makes him good for this role are intelligence integrity courage and he will soon be trained to have wisdom

the chief also explains how jonas will go through an unexplainable physical pain

he also has the capacity to see beyond

jonas objects but then realizes that the crowd changed the way the apple did

everyone chants jonas jonas jonas

jonas become very worried but still proud of what had just happened

# data[].attributes.body

if threes did thing bad things they would get slapped with a wand and if you distinguish the difference between two words you would get slapped

asher couldn't tell the difference between snack and smack so whenever he wanted a snack he would ask for a smack resulting in him getting smacked

for a while he wouldn't even talk

asher got the assignment of director of recreation

18 fiona got the assignment of care tacker of the old because she was gentle and caring

all of a sudden they skip over 19 ( jonas)

jonas starts freaking out and wondering what he did wrong
