One of my connections to Jonas is that I am also twelve. Another thing I can connect with is that I am also sometimes confused and don't know the answer. Text to text: I think another book that connects to the giver is the hunger games. The hunger games is set in a dystopian futuristic world,  like the giver. Another connection between these two books is that in each book, a hero is trying to set the world free of its dystopian ways.
Text to world: I think that the connection to the world is that people/dictators are trying to make the world a dystopian place and places like North Korea that are dystopian.]]> 2019-12-01 19:48:15 UTC https://padlet.com/krepsjc/ju1ba6f0m0th/wish/418197735 krepsjc https://padlet.com/krepsjc/ju1ba6f0m0th/wish/418236841 In The Giver, Jonas faces all three kinds of conflict. The first being man vs. man: when Jonas finds out what releasing is and sees his father perform one, and he becomes angry at his father. He never voices his anger and knows his father doesn't know any better but is still enraged.
Man vs. self: one instance of this type is when Jonas is contemplation telling the giver how he has shared memories with Gabriel, who kept crying. At night.]]> 2019-12-01 23:46:54 UTC https://padlet.com/krepsjc/ju1ba6f0m0th/wish/418236841 krepsjc https://padlet.com/krepsjc/ju1ba6f0m0th/wish/418261176   The Giver, by Lois Lowry, is a dystopian novel set in a futuristic world where you are always watched.
