The Giver (Chapters 21-23)

The Giver does not allow Jonas to go outside for two weeks. He heard that Gabriel is going to be released because he was put into the nurturing center and cried a lot. Jonas did not want that to happen so he took some food and his father's bike and went to Gabriel. He was breaking some serious rules. If I were Jonas, I would've done the same thing. Gabriel joined our family and still will be. I would want to help him out and not be released. The whole family liked him. He steals Gabe from the center and runs away with him. They hide during the day from all the airplanes that might be searching for them. While they were walking, Jonas falls and twists his ankle. He doesn't know what to do. Suddenly, he saw wildlife-- beautiful wildlife. Animals and water and all of those stuff. He worries that Gabe and him might starve; so they go fishing! I think that would be fun. I like fishing because you can enjoy nature and catch fish, which gives you a lot of pride.

He has lost many memories that the giver has given him. He forgotten how the heat of the sun feels like. He tries to transmit most of his memories to Gabriel. It was getting worse and worse for them. It was cold and they were probably lost. Suddenly he sees houses full of light and love. He runs down there with Gabe and they are very happy. They hear music behind them.

I really enjoyed this book. It was interesting and somewhat similar to my life. I love it. I would also rate this book 4 stars.
