Review #1 : Kayla, 5th grade

Rating: 5 of 5 stars - It's hard to imagine a better book!

Summary:  In a village that has strict rules, lives a boy named Jonas. The Villagers all listen to all the rules, like only having 2 children. Everyone listens and obeys except Jonas.

Review: This book was spell binding and had lots of cliffhangers. "The Giver" is also imaginative novel.

Rating: 4 of 5 stars - This book is better than most.

Summary:  Jonas is going through the ceremony of 12. Just like any ceremony of 12, each person gets called up and then told the job that they will do until they get old. Jonas is skipped and ends up getting the job that only one other person alive has gotten.

Review: his book is funny and very good. Some parts of the book surprised me, but I like how it begins. I think anyone who enjoys fantasy will like this book.
