The book‚ The Giver is very different from the film. One of those differences is character development. I think the strongest character development difference is with Fiona. In the book she was a more minor character who stayed the same throughout the book‚ as far as we know. In the movie she started off as more of a docile person‚ but by the end she was a lot more asserting. Fiona’s development starts when she decides to stop taking the injections. This is a big leap because everyone in the community

Comparing and Contrasting The Giver and The Prophet of Yonwood The definition of dystopia is "an imagined place or state in which everything is unpleasant or bad‚ typically a totalitarian or environmentally degraded one."

raise up a lot of questions. What makes an emotion? How are we able to feel emotion? It makes me think of The Giver by Lois Lowry. In The Giver is a society where all emotion is eliminated‚ meaning that humans cannot feel emotion. It’s very interesting to compare how emotion plays a huge role in both stories. Morrie is someone who has felt sadness‚ pain‚ and grief‚ yet people in The Giver never get to experience those emotions. I think Morrie is trying to tell Mitch to detach himself from his emotions
