I don't know if 12 year-olds would really get it though.

"The Giver"--Lois Lowry
I didn't know what this book was about and I have never read anything like it. I really liked it. It was definitely one of those that I just could not put down. This book definitely made me think about the way life is now and I am glad that it isn't like the community that they are from. I mean I wouldn't want everything to be the same. I would definitely get bored with my life.

That's an interesting comment... about wondering if 12 year olds would get it. Some do and many don't... and I'm surprised by how many sixth grade teachers have kids in their classes read it. It DOES make you think, hard and deep. I hope the teachers HELP walk kids through that deep kind of stuff!
