Comparing Giver's World And Our World

While some differences between the Giver’s world and our world are noticeable, the similarities are striking. In the Giver’s world, the children call their stuffed animal, “imaginary creatures.” In Chapter 2 of The Giver, it says, “Many of the comfort objects like Lily’s were soft, stuffed, imaginary creatures.” In our world, some people, like children, also call their stuffed animal, “imaginary creatures.” The reason they call it, “imaginary creature,” because you hold the creature that you don't know and try to imagine it in real life. The reason Giver’s world do that because they have no real life animal to see, so they use their stuffed animal to imagine the animals they hold, in real life. It's efficient for them to do that because
they don't have the real life animals in their community. We have the real life animals, but everyone in our community can see it. For example, blind people can only imagine the animals people talk about. Both our world and Giver’s world, children would called their comfort animals, “imaginary creatures,” because they never see the creatures they hold in real life, which they can only imagine it.
