Jonas's world is perfect. Everything is under control. There is no war or fear or pain. There are no choices. Every person is assigned a role in the Community.

When Jonas turns 12 he is singled out to receive specials training from The Giver. The Giver alone holds the memories of the true pain and pleasure of life. Now it's time for Jonas to receive the truth. There is no turning back.

I read & discussed this book with my 12 y/o son. I enjoyed the utopia premise and the challanges of "perfection".
