Introducing The Giver by Lois Lowry

   I am currently going to start reading the the Giver and before i start i want to "interview" the book. I after seeing the front cover i think the story is about an old man that wants to changes his form of living. But after "interviewing" the book i realized it is not about what it thought it would be actually it is about a young boy. Also i realized its as an adventure book with a lot of values and morals inside of it. On the dedication page Lois states the following "For all the children to whom we entrust the future." By saying this Lois says that he wrote this book for the young people that after he is gone will take the responsibility of the world.I think that by writing the book he is expecting young readers to create a better community and take care of the world such as he did.He also want kids to take care of him and other when they are old such as they did when we were young. After pre-reading the i predict that Jonas (the main character) is not happy with his life job that is why he starts revolting against the idea of the jobs being chosen by someone else; this brings problems that is why he has to hide and at the end he ends choosing what he wants to work at.
