Originality In The Giver
The Giver by: Derrick Bell
In the book The Giver by Lois Lowry, a boy named Jonas learned about the lessons of originality. His world is very different from ours. Our

Everyone is assigned to family units and the people in these units have no relation to one another. There is also a ceremony of release where
people get lethal injections. Everyone has a specific job in the community. The people in Jonas's community are missing out on important parts of

this originality could help me create things that could make life better for people in the
