that she is sorry about the guy. Jonas' Father is nurturer who is good in playing with kids, because he love kids. He is responsible for all the physical and emotional needs of every newchild. A newchild is an infant who was born before a few months. Jonas' Father is worry about a sweet newchild who he loved because the newchild will be banish but he want to prevent this and bring the child at home, but one Family only can have two Childs and so it will be three, also it gives many rules. Jonas' mother work at the department of justice, which is like a court. At the first Chapter from The Giver I had many Questions, for example, I didnt know what "Ceremony of Twelve" means and why the family exchanged their feelings in the evening. But I think the chapter is very interesting. 1 READING JOURNAL THE GIVER SUMMARY CHAPTER 2 The second chapter of the book is about the "Ceremony of Twelve". Jonas family talks about this event, because it is a very important point of his life. Jonas Father tells him, that everyone will get an assignment. In that case it is a job. His father spent his most time with the toddlers, so he worked as a nurturer. He think, it's normal to be excited, because he was excited too. So The second chapter answered the question abo the ceremony. In the Community it gives every year 50 newchilds, so there are never too much people in the community. The newchild number 36 is Gabriel but Jonas' Father does named him Gabe, because the name is maybe too long or an minimization. In the community there is one rule who is often broken. This is driving bicycle. Asher, Jonas' friend, is not very smart, so Jonas is worry about, that he didn't get a good Job. But his parents calmed him, because the elders know Asher and would find a nice Announce for him. Lily, Jonas' sister has a comfort object, this is an elephant. Jonas get a bear when he was a toddler. This is for a good sleep and no fear about being alone, so you feel save. I don't like it, that only one question is answered and more questions come to that. But I think the chapter is not very boring, because one question is answered. So we have an instinct to read the next chapter because we want to know what's with the rest of the questions. But also I hate it when it's like that. SUMMARY CHAPTER 3 The third chapter is about an infant named Gabriel. Jonas' father brings the small child with him when he comes from work, then everyone in the family looks at it and examines it carefully. Jonas' sister loves the child and want to be assigned as a birthmother, but Jonas' mother talk Lily out of this, because she said, that the job as a 2 READING JOURNAL THE GIVER birthmother has very little honor, because it is very demanding. But Jonas isn't interested in the child, so he bear in mind about the community. So he remembers, that you can't make a mistake there and if you do a mistake, the voice from the speakers says, that everybody should remember that rule, what was broken, but nobody knows, who brakes this rule. So Jonas remember as he had taken an apple, and the speaker had reminded him that "objects are not to be removed from the recreation areas and that snacks are to be eaten, not hoarded". It means, that you can eat the snacks, but you shouldn't collect the fruit. For Jonas Gabriel first attract attention his bright eyes. Normally all people have brown eyes except Jonas, who has also bright eyes, that means that they had the same birthmother. Lily chat often very much and loud, which is rude because many people are annoyed from this. She wants to be a birthmother because she want a newchild like Gabe, but her mother said, that she wouldn't have a beautiful life, because as a birthmother you go to a birthday center to get eat, then you get gentle exercise periods, 3 Years for 3 newchilds, but then you are forever a laborer, it's not honorably, because you didn't get a safe income. The speaker write of all what they can see. But everybody know who has break a rule although the name didn't say. (P.25 1.15- 19: "had been specifically directed at him, the day last month that he had taken an apple home. No one had mentioned it, not even his parents, because the public announcement had been sufficient to produce the appropriate remorse." The apple which Jonas see have changed his color, because of the light which changed. In the last paragraph it is very quit because the people who lived in the community are stretched for the next day. In this chapter it gives a new question, although it gives a few questions from the first chapter. So too many questions are still unanswered and new ones come up. But the Chapter was not boring or something like that, in spite of everything I like the chapter because it's very interesting. 3 READING JOURNAL THE GIVER SUMMARY CHAPTER 4 The fourth chapter is about Jonas, his friend Asher and their groupmate Fiona. They voluntarily do different tasks to know what kind of job is good for themselves For Jonas is the freedom to choose where to spent those hours is his luxury, because these are the only hours where you have freedom, other hours of the day were carefully regulated. Jonas saw Asher's bike in front of the retirement home, because Asher did his volunteer work there. The elders in Jonas community are well treated. While Jonas was washing Larissa he felt glad, because he like the atmosphere there, everyone is nice, warm, quiet and He's really good at his job. They are released. So the old people are let into a room and then talk about their lives, everyone gives a lecture. In chapter 4 another question appears, before others are answered, but I like this chapter.
