The Giver

Chapter 1-3
Prompt: Summarize

When I first started the story started in the month of late November.  It opened on Jonas remembering the time when instead of a cargo ship, and fighter jet came to his community to take care of unknown business.  He was instructed as well as the other kids were to drop their bikes where they were and to get inside a building.  After that was over the day continued on like any other one.  Jonas went home to his family for dinner that night.  When they were eating that night, they shared their feelings for that night as always.  

In the next chapter, Jonas found himself talking about the ceremony of the Ones.  This ceremony was held for the naming and welcoming into the community, wich was held as a giant party.  Also in this chapter, they first mentioned the Receiver who is the most important elder in the community.  They have not yet mentioned what the Receiver's purpose so that makes me even more curious.  At the end of the chapter three they talked a little more about Lily's volunteering.


In chapter four, Jonas went to volunteer for the first time we have seen him so far.  he was told to go to the bath house to start his work.  When he got inside, he saw his friend Asher, and a girl he knew, Fiona there.  He started at his work which was washing the people at the Recovery center. As he began washing a old woman, he started to remember what he saw last night which was his father washing his new little brother gently
 and applied the situation here.
