Book Worm

Last week in class we read from chapter 9 to 12 and thers a bunch of things I was able to took notes about.
We can see  that when the Ceremony o the Twelve ends Jonas starts feeling DISTANT, like o one can be near him; when i was reading I realized that we can connect this part with "Los Ojos del Perro Siberiano" by Antonio Santa Ana, a book that we read in spanish. Shortly after whe Jonas meets the Giver, he start talting about how he can see beyond, but The Giver tells him he now sees SEES. This part MAKES ME WONDER, how did they ELIMINATE all the colors, making everything the same? Are Jonas and the others really clones of us in BLACK and WHITE?

Another thing that made me wonder was Jonas rules by being a receiver of memory is the eighth question that read "You may lie" In this part I was stunned. How would he know that in all this time everyone was not telling the truth? How was he supposed to trust ANYBODY. How coul he be BRAVE in his place?

In the past chapters, Lois Lowry has shown us the imporance of memories, Jonas never knew what was snow


, or summer. In his world of sameness Jonas feels NOTHING not even sun burn.



This world shows how POWER can be handeled wrongly and how it is a TRUE HONOR being selected as a Receiver, yet it is the only way you could ever know about seasons or colors.
