First chapters, first actions and questions...

The Giver
First chapters, actions and questions....
By: Isabela Bermeo

Summary
What is going on right now in the book The Giver is that fisrt they seem to live in a perfect world in which everything is perfectly controled for everything and everyone. I can realize that the society they live in, is not a normal society with difficulties but instead is just a society with no kinds of trouble were everyone is perfectly placed were they should be, with the family they should be, with the job they belong and everything is just the way it should be, but there is also this thing they have about releasing people. I can guess from what I have read that if someone doesnt follow everything in the community like they are suppose to then they will be release which means that they may be kick out or even get killed in order they never get back to the community so everything is still perfect as it should be. I can predict that Jonas is a unic boy because of his eyes and also his personality and way of thinking, he will be able to get to the bottom of this perfect society he lives in.

My reading strategy here would be Questioning.
Quote; "Two children, one male, one female to each family unit. It was written very clearly in the rules."
My question is, Why families can only have one female and one male as their children, are they even from birth? This quote inspire me to do this question because i dont understand why the rules are being so strict and why do childrens don't know who their birth mothers are if they are not the ones they were raised with and possibly because of what I have continued reading there are this bithmothers which give their children to the community, many children can have lots of lots of brothers and sisters they don't even know and why would this birthmothers would give their children so easily? This book has made me feel very curious about what could happen  and made do lots of connections with other books and movies with Dystopia. One of the connnections I have made is with the book and movie of Divergent, I can connect with this book because they also have a perfect community controlled and safe, they are all given his jobs because of what they like and what they should be in the future.

Conclusion Paragraph
The Giver so far has been a great, interesting and very exciting book that has bring lots of questions, predictions and connections to my mind. I do believe that after Jonas gets his assignment something will change maybe with his family, friends or even his own life. I do believe that Jonas will not think as the other kids and adults that the community they lived in is just perfect as it seem and  I can tell that because Jonas has already began to question things about his community like the apple and I am sure that's not gonna be the only time he notices something. Finally I really like this book and I am exciting to keep reading and see what happens.
