2. Jonas(The Giver)
Jonas is chosen to be the next "Giver" because of how
different he is. Mainly his eyes, and how he starts to see
things in flashes of color. So he begins as the receiver in
training. The current "Giver" starts with him slowly, passing
along memories for Jonas to receive and as they progress he
experiences what life used to be, he feels pain and war and
love and family and becomes upset that their life in the
community is so different and that no one can experience
any of that. He hates the sheltered lifestyle and it becomes
a burden for him because he alone is the one who has to
take all the memories so that the community wont
experience any of them.

adversity.

memories back to the community, which will then have a
strong need for the giver again. Jonas decides to leave the
community and once he does, memories that he held will
all be there for the community. They start training for this
by the Giver giving Jonas specific memories. Jonas is also
upset that Gabriel, the baby who stayed with his family and
also has the same gift as Jonas, is going to be killed, so he

run away. The memories are released to the community
and their all vulnerable to all the new feelings, Jonas and
Gabe live happy the rest of the way.
