The Giver Epilogue

For the first time, he heard something he knew to be music. He heard singing. He saw bright red and green lights shining in the distance. As he got closer he saw houses, many houses with green and red lights hanging on them. He knew of something like this; it was Christmas! He was starving, cold, and felt frostbitten, but he had to make it there. Gabe was crying, he couldn’t handle the cold. Jonas finally arrived at the village glown up with red and green lights. There were people standing by doors singing, “We wish you a merry Christmas, we wish a merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year.”
Jonas saw many people, even kids playing in the snow. He ran up to a lady in a big brown fuzzy coat and he begged for food and warmth. She was a very nice
