another reason why i think pain and pleasure is that inportant theme is because if jonas never expeirced that memeorie of the sled and snow he would not have had had it down the hill because he would have not known what to do. since the memeorie was bassically what was happening. also if jonas never became the reciever and getting all these memeories it would not have made him so angrey at the community and want to change things. which is bassically what the book is about.]]> 2018-02-06 18:32:12 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica_bielawski/28x59lgsqzci/wish/228776777
