Storytelling Assignment

I decided to do the storytelling assignment using the text of The Giver by Lois Lowry because since middle school it has become one of my favorite books. I always enjoyed the idea of dystopian societies in literature and this book in specific always reminded me of how complicated people are emotionally. I decided to read a few sentences from chapter 16 because the text is about Jonas the main character if his parents love him but because he has certain emotions that others cannot feel or understand. His parents' response was that it was silly of him to use the word "love" which really struck me ever since I was younger wondering how could people ever live without feeling.
