It's about a special boy who is selected (jobs are selected by 'elders') at a young age, I think 13 or something, to be the 'giver'. There is some eugenics in it, the family consists of only 2 children (MUST be boy and girl) but they are not biological and once you get a certain age you are killed. But this boy, through the 'giver' realizes what's going on and that this society has lost something. It's a great book. I would recommend it for young adults as well as adults. You should read it. It is by far one of my favorite books.Ryan Oakeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15003379757359430083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5477631509596343957.post-5800636570752909272008-06-27T07:55:00.000-06:002008-06-27T07:55:00.000-06:00Ryan,Did not know if you read my question over on ...Ryan,<BR/>Did not know if you read my question over on Veith's blog re:<BR/>eugenics, but could you explain why<BR/>you commented on the book, “The Giver”? I’ve heard this book being recommended by teachers (although I admit I have not read it). Just wonder why you included it?<BR/>My wife also recommended it to our children so I would just like to know if I should correct her on something she may have missed.

But it's mainly because I have seen so many ineffective and horrid presentations. Going to be watching the Steve Jobs presentation...he does it best.Ryan Oakeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15003379757359430083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5477631509596343957.post-29622826218204762752008-06-03T16:11:00.000-06:002008-06-03T16:11:00.000-06:00You're welcome.
