But from the moment he is selected as the Receiver of Memory, Jonas discovers that their community is not as perfect as it seems. It is only with the help of the Giver, that Jonas can find what has been lost. And it is only through his personal courage that Jonas finds the strength to do what is right...The Giver is the award-winning classic of bravery and adventure that has inspired countless dystopian writers as the forerunner of this genre.

Leitura fácil

Um livro que foi indicado para leitura do clube do livro da turma de inglês. Tem uma leitura fácil com o personagem principal bem construído e uma história que atrai a atenção a cada capítulo. Tem um final um tanto decepcionante, pois era esperado um desfecho melhor da história... Talvez tenha um outro livro que dê seguimento. Recomendo para quem quer treinar o inglês. Pois existem palavras de fácil compreensão e tem bastante " food for thoughts".
Enjoy it.
